Suitable Plants
These pots provide useful growing space for:
- Basil
- Money plants
- Syngonium
- Spider plants
- Peace lilies
- Young ornamental shrubs
Plant size and root growth differ between varieties. Move vigorous plants into a larger container if roots begin filling the complete pot.
Where to Use
The lightweight design works well in:
- Balcony gardens
- Rooftop arrangements
- Patios and entrances
- Indoor plant corners
- Window-side displays
- Nurseries
- Home garden paths
- Covered terraces
When using a pot indoors, place a saucer or tray underneath to collect water leaving through the base.
How to Use
- Fill the pot partly with a loose growing medium such as Soilless Potting Mix.
- Position the plant at the same depth at which it was previously growing.
- Fill around the roots and press the mixture only lightly.
- Water slowly until excess moisture begins leaving through the drainage holes.
Leave a small space below the rim so water and potting mix do not spill over during watering.
Watering
Check the growing medium before watering instead of following a fixed daily schedule. Plastic pots lose less moisture through their sides than unglazed clay pots, so the mixture can remain damp for longer.
Water thoroughly when the upper layer has dried according to the plant’s needs. Empty collected water from indoor saucers instead of leaving the pot standing in it.
Plants on sunny balconies and exposed rooftops need checking more often during hot or windy weather.
Pot Care
Wash empty pots with water and a soft brush before reusing them. Remove old roots, fertilizer deposits and compacted material from the base.
Allow previously used pots to dry before planting again, especially when the former plant had root problems. Store unused pots away from heavy objects that could bend their rims.
FAQs
Can one tomato plant grow in this pot?
A compact or patio tomato can be grown as one plant per pot with proper feeding and support. Large, continuously growing tomato varieties perform better in a larger container.
Will the pot become too hot in summer?
Plastic can warm in strong sunlight, particularly in darker colours. During intense summer heat, protect sensitive roots from harsh afternoon sun and avoid placing pots directly against very hot walls.
Why is the growing medium staying wet for too long?
The pot may be too large for the current root system, the drainage openings may be blocked or the growing medium may be too dense. Clear the base and allow the upper layer to dry before watering again.
Are these pots suitable for exposed rooftops?
Yes, and they are easier to carry upstairs than many heavy containers. Once planted, position them securely because empty or lightly filled plastic pots can move during strong wind.
