No, that's not what hempy buckets are at all.

No SSDI, the perlite will not stay together, that's why you need to cut the bottom and side of the pot. Carefully place it into the new bucket that is filled up enough to have the plant at the proper level, remove the bottom, fill in around the old pot with perlite and remove the old pot. I hope you understand what I'm trying to describe here.
Shovelhandle Reviewed by Shovelhandle on . scared to death of transplanting I have 7 girls in mini hempy buckets that will need to go into 5 gal buckets soon. I'm scared to death that I will either kill or injure them. Any advice or tricks of the trade? Any info is gratefully appreciated. Rating: 5
