kd u r right about the soil below getting too wet in larger pots. I personally would start out in small pots and look to transplant no more than twice and once pref. Transplanting isnt that much 'stress' if u do it correctly and there is less chance of u getting root rot or such that way. I start with pots about 10cm across and roughly the same deep and -depending on circumstances- i like to pot them up into 25cm pots before i put them on 12-12. but thats just me.
greenmonster Reviewed by greenmonster on . Starting Planting and Pot Size.. Concerns? Just curious If there is a harm in Starting a seed (After Germinated) In the pot you plan to grow it in untill its full size. Ex 1 Gallon or 2 Gallon. The only concern I can think of too much water? The soil will hold to much water for how many roots are actully in the pot. Causing soggy soil and Molds and such Correct? If I am careful and never soak the soil untill the plant is bigger is this a safe move? I wont flush or water all soil untill it seems the plant can handle it. I will apply Rating: 5
