Ok then. Single stem would certainly work I would think. Always wanted to try something like that, just seems to elude me when it comes time.

Thanks for mentioning that. I completely forgot about HD having them. I almost purchased from HD when I found them on Amazon cheaper. Obviously that is now a moot point, being that my seller no longer has them.

I grew a New Big Dwarf to a very good size for plant out in a 1 quart ziplock bag.
The plants look nice by the way.

If heavy duty trash bags came in white, I would give it a try. I think black grow bags would only truly work for those folks up north, with their cooler summers.
Thanks for the compliment.

I searched the whites in the past, but a lot of the comments said the product came black or that sometimes there were no holes, wrong size etc., so I passed.
I will check out the HD ones.
Edit: Just ordered 50 to come in at my local HD.
Thanks for the heads up Farmer'sDaughter!

Glad you found some to order. Also, I think the quality of the bags have come a long ways. I would have no hesitation vouching for both Viagrow and Sunleaves brand bags. Both are just good quality.
I plan to reuse last years 5 gallon bags for my peppers. They have held up just fine.
