Product Description
Better than plastic containers, better than raised beds, the Smart Pot is a truly innovative, inexpensive and practically foolproof way to grow potted (containerized) plants.
The Smart Pot is an aeration container, an improvement in container technology that allows you to grow plants in a more favorable environment than in a similar sized standard pot. Uniquely constructed with a super strong black fabric material, Smart Pots won't crack from temperature extremes or break when dropped.
The Smart Pot's black fabric construction quickly warms up during the early season soil which enables plants to get off to a quicker start. Yet the same fabric, due to its porous nature, allows heat to escape from the container through evaporative cooling during the summer's hottest days.
Because of the Smart Pot's unique breathability and excellent drainage characteristics, they are more forgiving than hard sided containers and a wide range of potting mixes can be used.
When used on bare ground, the Smart Pot's porous fabric base contours to the undulations of the ground and will establish capillary contact with the ground. When you move your Smart Pot, water it back in to reestablish capillary contact.
Unlike hard plastic containers, by cutting planting sites into the sides of Smart Pots, a full container effect can be achieved that completely hides the container.
Smart Pots work with all kinds of plants including annuals, perennials, fruits, vegetables and herbs. Smart Pots are compatible with all fertilization programs.
Smart Pots work great in ebb and flood (sub-irrigation) systems and are ideal for aquatic plants as well.
Smart Pot's are available in a multitude of sizes to fit virtually every application from propagation to tree farming.
