In pots or in the ground?

Sorry for the wisecrack. I've been holding it in all school year as students seem to be getting dumber by the day.

Autos IMO will never be root bound in a 5 gallon pot.
Photoperiod seeds can veg much longer, get bigger, and produce much bigger flowers.

Bigger roots equals bigger fruits so planting in the ground in well made soil can get you very large plants, that aren't autos.

Let it do its thing until the soil dries out a bunch. Weed is called weed for a reason. They are very resilient. It'll most likely be fine.
It always concerns me when I see people giving such basic good advice ((like yourself)).....only to see the person who was giving this poor guy help before you showed up ....literally QOUTE you and say ....learn something new every day .....lol wtf...if people are learning such basic things about growing still ....they have no business giving advice to others about stuff they self admitted knowing nothing about ......blind leading the blind.

:wall:

Use to go in the ground in my green houses .....gophers got so bad ...they'd literally come out of there hole ...step over my buried wire and dig down to attack my girls ....I was so pissed ...lol.....so now I'm in giant smart pots ...which I love ...little more water than being in the ground , but I've had awesome results for several years now .....switched my full outdoor ((experimental grow)) I do each year ....to raised beds ....not sure I like it as much as the smart pots ...

Reason I say all this is because ....when I first started growing on my own as a kid ...I used 5 gal buckets and thought I was the shit ..lol..grew some nice plants ....but when I bought my first piece of property and sank one in the ground ....it literally out produced all my bucket plants alone ....so more roots more fruits is agreed.....sorry to ramble
