Potking Round Fabric Pots

PotKing Round Fabric Pots are the ideal way to ensure the health of your plants. Manufactured from a heavy grade fabric made of fibre from recycled PET bottles, they offer excellent aeration of the rootzone and superior drainage. Roots which reach the edge of the pot are “air-pruned”, which avoids the root circling sometimes seen in solid-wall pots. Initially flat-packed, these pots are designed to be easy to fill - the fabric is sturdy enough for the pots to stand up while empty, meaning that filling is a one-person job even for the larger sizes. Hand-washable and fully re-usable, PotKing Round Fabric Pots will last for several seasons. At the end of their useful life, they can be recycled once more.

Choosing Pots Size

With most plants it is true that the larger the root structure, the more they will produce, this is especially true of annuals(plants that on last one season), so a larger pot can help achieve higher yields.
Using a smaller pot can restrict root growth and therefore overall plant growth, this can be a benefit, for example fruit trees on a patio in smaller pots may be easy to control and prune than in the ground.

Use

It is better to start young plants in smaller pots so that their roots can gradually fill the pot before re-potting, if small plants are potted into large pots they can struggle to access water that has drained to the bottom of the pot before the roots have reached down there.
Beneficial microbes(bacteria and mycorrhiza) are great products to use when potting on as they will quicky colonise the root zone and accelerate root growth, Mykos, Azos, Great White and Psycho Myco are all products that we highly recommend.
