🌞 Beat Heat Stress with Better Drainage
Plastic pots can trap heat, clog drainage, and stunt root growth — especially on rooftops or patios under strong sunlight. This 10-gallon fabric grow bag solves those problems with breathable non-woven fabric that keeps roots cool, drains excess water, and encourages healthy air-pruned roots.
Whether you're growing a tomato plant, green chili, bell pepper, or eggplant, this size offers just enough space for a single food or ornamental crop. The bag measures approximately 15 inches wide and 14 inches tall, giving your plants enough space to grow deep, healthy roots. It’s durable, foldable, and made to last multiple seasons — ideal for container gardening in warm climates.

How to Set Up
1. Add Potting Mix
Fill about 80% of the grow bag with a loose, well-draining mix such as 2 parts soil + 1 part vermicompost. This will take approximately 22–25 liters of mix for a 10-gallon bag. Mix in 10–15% coco peat if you're gardening in hot, dry weather to help hold moisture.
2. Choose a Good Spot
Place the bag where it gets 5–6 hours of direct sunlight daily. To prevent tipping in windy areas, set it near a wall or add some support at the base.
3. Water Correctly
After planting, water slowly until water starts draining through the fabric. Water again only when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.

FAQs
How much soil does a 10-gallon grow bag require?
To fill a 10-gallon grow bag up to 80% capacity, you'll need approximately 22–25 liters (about 0.8–0.9 cubic feet) of potting mix. This allows adequate space for watering and root expansion.
Do I Need to Add Drainage Holes to Grow Bags?
No, you don’t need to add any holes! Non-woven plant grow bags come with built-in drainage properties. The fabric allows excess water to escape while retaining moisture for the roots, which helps prevent overwatering.
Can I plant multiple vegetables in one 10-gallon grow bag?
Yes, but it's best suited for smaller plants. You can grow two to three chili or bush bean plants per bag. However, for larger plants like tomatoes or eggplants, it's best to grow only one per bag.
Can I Use Grow Bags Outdoors, and How long will they last?
Yes, they are ideal for outdoor use and designed to last up to 5 years with proper care. They are perfect for various gardening spaces, including patios and balconies.
