Air pots for a basement grow?

[twentyeight.threefive]

Got two to test out vs my normal Vivosun cloth pots. We'll see how they go.

I customized a bit and added fibreglass screen on the bottom.


Tomorrow is day 21 and I’ll be transplanting my girls to their new home.

Your airpot is upside down.

Your airpot is upside down.

It is?

 

[twentyeight.threefive]

It is?

Yes the two rows without holes go at the top to create a water reservoir.

 

[CunningCanuk]

I just got them delivered from Amazon and no instructions.

Makes sense. Thanks!

Used em for years never knew that

I'm not that smart. I googled "how to assemble an airpot".

I put a circle of spreader matt (or similar) in the bottom of the air pots to stop coco falling through.

Fold the spreader as many times as you need then use the bottom to cut around.

Still smart, I could have done that too.

The wildwood flower grew wild on the farm we never knew what it was called
Some said it was a flower
Some said it was a weed
Me
I never gave it much thought

Are those original airpots or knock offs?

 

[Herb & Suds]

Do you have a link for knock offs?

 

[CunningCanuk]

Knock offs, I’m sure

 

[MickFoster]

Do you have a link for knock offs?

No.......I bought the originals.

Knock offs, I’m sure

I thought so........they look different than mine.
Yours may not have two rows without the holes like the originals........most of the knock offs don't.

That explains why mine aren't upside down lol

I’m cheap so I use the fabric pots most of the time. I’m vegging in plastic nursery pots rn but I poked a bunch of holes in em so they’re doing the same thing as the airpots or fabric.

Thats fine but that doesn't trim the roots
but you are adding a bit of aeration
