Looks like hot soil. Keep on the dry side for less nutrient uptake.
I've had to cut pots/buckets during early flower a few times .....I just cut the bottoms off the pot or bucket and a few large holes in the sides ....if your still in veg though you'd be fine to slide them out and put em in the ground ....good luckNo their in pots, want to go to the ground with them now but someone said it was to late in the year, disturbing the root system would cause to much set back this late. Any thoughts on that?
I was reading through some threads yesterday and noticed a guy giving instructions on jabbing the soil with a stick several times to loosen it up ....so I grabbed a broom handle sharpened it like a mid evil weapon and proceeded to QUOTE loosen my soil .....lol wtfDon't stick hands and fingers in soil. It tears roots. Use the lift method.
It has its place when needed. That's for compact soils otherwise a good draining one I wouldn't do it to.I was reading through some threads yesterday and noticed a guy giving instructions on jabbing the soil with a stick several times to loosen it up ....so I grabbed a broom handle sharpened it like a mid evil weapon and proceeded to QUOTE loosen my soil .....lol wtf
Oh really wow I honestly wouldn't think that would be a good idea no matter what .....I would think poking into the soil would brake/disturb roots quite badly .....I always use good soils to start out with so I've yet to run into such a problem .....learn something new everyday I guess ......but il stick to well draining soil ....sadly I lied about the mid evil broom thing and stabbing plants and all that cool shit ......my apologiesIt has its place when needed.

A broom is a bit too wide. Long screwdriver or wooden dowel would work better.Oh really wow I honestly wouldn't think that would be a good idea no matter what .....I would think poking into the soil would brake/disturb roots quite badly .....I always use good soils to start out with so I've yet to run into such a problem .....learn something new everyday I guess ......but il stick to well draining soil ....sadly I lied about the mid evil broom thing and stabbing plants and all that cool shit ......my apologies
Ya the info I was reading earlier I believe he was saying he used like the little bamboo support sticks or small tent stakes .......my broom thing was just sarcasm ...A broom is a bit too wide. Long screwdriver or wooden dowel would work better.
Like those spikes that poke holes in the ground.
