Hello! Our first grow didn’t get off to a great start so trying again. Going to use nursery bags this time for seedlings. Should I be concerned about the roots getting light like we would for a clear container?
Are there any cons to using them because all I have seen are pros?
Appreciate the help!!
They don’t have flat bottoms so they fall over if not supported.
Ah that makes sense. I was thinking the soil would weigh it down. I’ll have to test it out and see how I feel.
They become very top heavy and fall over with some type of support system.
The size I have will fit into a Solo cup for stability. Be sure to poke holes in the cup if you do use them. I think @Not2SureYet has some insight into them. Me; I’ve been using rockwool and liking it.
Thanks guys, that seems to be the general feedback- to watch out for stability. Think we are going to give them ago. We have some containers I think will be perfect. Thanks again!! 
I use the larger size almost 1 gallon and they do stand on there own I haven’t had any cons yet. Here’s my plants getting ready to go outside
That looks absolutely incredible.
@Myfriendis410 , with the solo cup size bags, you can transplant directly into media & the roots grow through the bag correct?
That’s my understanding.
Thanks everyone! I put them in solo cups and added cuts to the bottoms for drainage/circulation. 
Another thing I learned was to flip then inside out and they situp right good with all sizes I tried I love them
@Vtbudz Where were you 10 hours ago?!? 
I just tried this out and you’re totally right. It stays up nice and firm even with dry soil. Great tip! Oh well… next time lol.
@Newt Thats what I planned to do, use existing pots I have. Sadly I only have like reallly small ones or really large ones. Luckily I had exactly 4 solo cups. 
That’s how I use mine. 
They are out of the bags I use. They are about 20oz bags. I could get a link that is close in size if needed. The 9x9 bags are a gallon. And the roots grow out fine 
These are growing mostly down because this was in a autopot. So bottom fed.
@Not2SureYet ,That seems like a great way to avoid transplant shock, especially in an auto.
Appreciate the pic!! Looks like a great choice. I’m transplanting the bags from their solo cups today to their 5 gallon fabric pots forever home. 
What nursery bag dimensions fit solo cups? I saw a couple smaller ones online, but I’m sure if they’re optimal sizes.
I ordered 5.5” x 6.3” and they worked okay for the 16 ounce solo cups.
These may work better, as they’re about 4” x 4.7” : https://a.co/d/iYM1jfs
