blue wally bags

Didnt even know WTF wally bags are, turns out their Garment bags, they come in diff sizes so you going to be more specific and look the formula for calculating volume based on the dimensions of the Bag :)
 
about 5 is what i was thinking. used some last year and they worked great. one year is all i got out of them. but hey, for 50cents each, i will use again

why when for 50 cents to a dollar depending on source you can get the white plastic grow bags that last years... can also get fabric grow bags at 5 gallons for 1.50 each that last 3-4 years...

Some people use them because they are cheap, others use them for the "air pruning" method of growing because they let air into the soil and supposedly it makes the roots grow more downward and back in towards the center of the bag when they hit the sides instead of just circling around like they do in a plastic pot. If you haven't heard of it, just look it up on youtube.

oh, no... Im aware... Ive been growing in cloth grow bags for years... its just this year i am going up to a few hundred plants on multiple properties... too much watering for that many plants...also with the plastic grow bags there is usually a decent root system without the circling as well because of the flexible sides of the bag the roots can push it a way a bit causing space and a version of air prune... not as effective as cloth but way better than hard plastic pots...  [media]https://youtu.be/HMCSjMvmbs0[/media]

Good review, that's really neat. I might try a couple experiments for myself this year, 5 gal buckets, plastic growbags and fabric growbags, to see which does the best.
