The heat is starting to climb, so the early season stuff is starting to struggle a bit. Looks like terra cotta beats plastic and big beats small. There you go, empirical evidence of a fact everyone already knew: plants prefer the expensive pots

Definitely gives justification to get more since it works for your grow/life style haha.
I’m the other way, my pots usually break, they get brittle with hot cold cycles so I don’t like buying expensive ones, and I don’t want to store them indoor, garage at most. I do rinse them off, but still less critter chance the better.
Ughh that’s too dang hot, we average 25s all summer, but it’ll get up to high 30s sometimes. The shitty throng is, there’s like no spring as you’ve seen, so we could easily get mid 30s here in the next couple weeks even. So straight from winter into the fire, but those aren’t frequent atleast, and they typically bring afternoon thundershowers. The hail and other shits another story haha.
