CULT: Pot culture utopia


Thanks much for all the comments on my earlier thread on this. I am going to get some big bags of perlite to allow me mix with my existing Sta-Green (both in bags and in already potted varieties) and continue my repotting. But at only one per variety instead of two, since I will have backup rhizomes in the rest of the clump still in the ground. I'll continue trying to repot, yes all varieties, before the end of the season, but might run out of season first.

Now, the big question. Of those of you that have tried pots, if you had your druthers and money were not an issue (don't we all wish?), would you be a dirt grower or a pot grower? Let us further constrain with the assumption that you do indeed want to have a non-iris life on the side (for me, that's volunteer hiking trail maintenance with 120 miles to personally look after). I was aggressively pursuing pots with the assumption, maybe false, that it would greatly reduce the weeds, and make weeding much less awesome for a couple hundred clump advanced hobbyist garden. The answer might be different for you folks who are in the business and have the time to treat it as such.

Thanks again,
George
