free smart pots

WRIGHTON! haha... I thought that was funny. Good Find, hope I can get a ton of them...Just inboxed all my friends and family...
 
Thanks for the heads up. I am eyeing their flood tray smart liners for my ebb and flow trays. It has handles so once done with a grow you can lift out all the medium cleanly for replacement.

Awesome, I know they say it's 5 gallon smart pots but I wonder how many we'll get.

It does say 1 number 5 smart pot so I am only expecting 1 pot and a #5 is not a 5 gal pot but about half that. For reference a #1 is not a gal either but anywhere from a half gal to 3/4 a gal depending on manufacturer. Some sell what they call a true 1 gal or a 1.5 size. So a question for those who have used these pots or have them now can you show/tell us how they compare to a normal #5 nursery pot in size and width? I like what is called around here a squat 5 which is shorter and wider then a normal #5.

Interesting that they advertise their #5 pots as 5 gallons. Actually it appears that #n corresponds directly to n gallons on their page.

Thanks for the heads up! It was funny that i was talking to tim@smartpots this morning from the "free nutrients" thread about getting pots and he was gonna setup sending some to a local store. I guess this will be two free samples?

Oh, well I didn't catch the 1 part. And I know it's not always exactly 5 gallons, but oh well its free.
