[IBC] Mica Pots
Hello to All,
General Response,
been growing a Tamarind and a Gmelina in black
mica pots and these trees require full sun.Thus
far no problems with roots and overheating.
Growth remains even and trees are green.
Stay Well All.

*Perhaps the plastic type look of the mica pot
is what cheapens it,whereas stoneware has a
surface that is seductively touchable and mates
so well with tree/trunk textures/colours.

I agree with all you say, Marty. Ceramic pot adds value to a good bonsais.
But nobody answers my question: Mica pots can overheat the roots in a hot
summer?
This characteristic could be important in a warm climate like Mediterranean
or
Californian.
