Adding a breathable pot can increase storage

Why do cannabis plants need air pots & smart pots?

Air pots and smart pots are beneficial for cannabis plants as they prevent the plants from getting "wet feet". The air from the sides ensures that the plants always have an adequate supply of oxygen.

How to choose a cannabis container?

Cannabis containers or pots come in a few varieties, and depending on the kind of cannabis you are growing, your local weather, cultivation method, etc., you want to choose a container that offers the benefits. Like anything else, all the different types of pots offer different pros and cons, and some would be more suited to you than the rest.

Do big plants tip over in a smart pot?

Even big plants in smart pots won’t tip over. Outdoor cannabis growers often use large (600+ gallon) smart pots for their cannabis, as they help the plants grow faster than if planted directly in the ground. Smart pots prevent cannabis from becoming root-bound and requiring transplanting to a new container.

Can you grow cannabis in a container?

You can grow cannabis in any container if you are brave enough — even an old sock drawer — but in 99% of the cases, just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. Unless you have strong reasons to grow cannabis in unconventional pots, you should stick to gardening containers that promote better plant health.

How do smart pots work for growing cannabis?

Smart pots help prevent cannabis plants from becoming root-bound by 'air-pruning' roots from the sides. This stops the roots from wrapping around the edges of the container and 'choking' the plant.

Are smart pots suited for large cannabis plants?

Smart Pots and fabric pots in general are often characterised by their size, as they’re quite wide and therefore suited for large plants. They don’t come with a drainage dish on the bottom, either. All that considered, we think these pots are best suited for those growing larger cannabis plants outside.
