I believe in letting my plants grow naturally and do what they want. they already fill my flowering closet and are too large for SCROG..happy plants produce better medicine and I am not god. my plants know more than I do.this old geezer grows MMJ for personal use and I give my surplus production to low income cancer patients so I want the best quality I can grow.I have been looking at 36 by 36 inch grow tents and 315 watt LECs on ebay and may get one to try a single plant scrog when I get a little extra cash.but I ain't no fancy commercial grower.I is just a po'boy dirt farmer :):):)
I can dig it, I do it for the love of it. I don't sell any of mine. My wife needs it for pain management. I grow enough to hold us over for a year and start over. I hate the down time but we don't need 3 or 4lbs of love. I hate looking for something I can do myself.
If I don't fly imma die anyway

I hate wasting money at the dispensary for factory grown crap.home grown is so much better. unfortunately in my state I can't grow outdoors and have a limited amount of space to grow indoors so I have to grow year round.even the card holding MMJ patients that work at the dispensary grow their own for PU.I use it for pain and hypertension and it works a lot better than prescription drugs without all the bad side effects and the cancer patients I give my surplus too love it as well. one told me they thought they were gitting good stuff from their dealer until they tried my home grown :):):)

No doubt, home cooked food is always better than Fast food. They harvest waaaay too early. Saw documentary about that. Leaves are still green and vibrant when they harvest. It's all about the money. Not to mention your gonna get taxed to high hell for mid grade. Imagine how good it would be if they cared.

I think it's just a matter of personal taste. I have used both and don't see much difference. plastic bucket do last longer and are easier to clean.
If you have fungus gnats problem the fabric pots will do better. They can't crawl into the bottom of the pot and you can put sand on top of your soil to make it impossible for the gnats to burrow into your soil and another reason is the air to the roots. Plastic pots are easier to clean but the pots do hold alot of heat in the or coldness in the root zone. I still use them from time to time but I prefer fabric. Watering alitte more but still worth it. Just my choice( isn't American great to have choices.
