anyone have a side by side comparison of a plant grown in a air prune pot like, superoot, root pouch, smart pot, ect and identicle plant grown in a regular container?
both being same size containers ie. 10Gallon
 
i want to see the difference in size if possible.
 
thank you
 
I'm at work and can't really post pics, but I posted pics in the tech forum threads about air prune pots.  I had12 7-gallon containers with 6 in air pots, 6 in regular.  There was absolutely zero difference in appearance, size, or harvest rate.  Makes me a bit mad since the felt ones were 5-6 times the cost!
 
Me too. I used 7 gallon containers and have to call BS on the air prune pots being worth the $ at that size. I compared the rootballs in the fall and the ones in regular pots weren't bound at all. They were indistinguishable between them. This year I will be using larger, 10gal+, and will see if there is an improvement. Good luck with your pots!
