Smaler pots = smaller plants???

  1. I was thinking, i got a bunch of small pots around my house, and if i planted herb in them , would i get smaller plants or would they not produce buds because of fucked up roots?
     

  2. They would be fine for a while but eventually the roots would start bunching into each other and the plant becomes root-bound. Growth would definitely slow down and leaves would start yellowing. It would work for a while, but you would eventually need to repot them into a bigger pot. Pots are cheap, so it's not like it's a big deal :D
     
  3. thanks, how long do you think before the roots start bunching?
     
  4. Check out these beauties in small beer cups!

    That is actually really cool :cool:

    ...but those plants are miniature :eek:

    They probably are root-bound in there, do you have to trim off a lot of yellowing leaves? (a sign of root-bound pants)


    I'm not sure, but I only keep my sprouts in "beer cups" for about a week or two.
     
  9. No yellow leaves.
    Just so were all on the same page, these are lowryders pictured.
    8-9 weeks from seed to harvest.
     

  10. I must admit...I'm impressed :cool:

    +rep man!
     
  11. what was your growing method when growing in those cups, how old are they, and how much did you get off of each plant?
