So I experimented with a Grow using plastic and smart pots...and I'm glad I did. First off all plants had same nutrient regiment and were the same size going into flower(18 inches). But the plants in plastic finished up slightly taller (30-32 inches) while the smart pot plants finished at about 28.

The smart pots also use slightly more water then plastic, thus increasing the amount of time it takes to dry out...thus making it a slight pain in the ass to hand water because everything is on a different schedule, lol.

I'll post the finished pictures tomorrow.
