Product Information

Full details

The Gardening Naturally Mini Growpots are ideal for home gardeners looking to cultivate strawberries, herbs, or chilli plants in pots, offering a targeted feeding and root development system. Their key benefit is simplifying consistent watering and nutrient delivery directly to the root zone, preventing overwatering and promoting stronger growth. A potential caveat is their small size, making them best suited for individual plants rather than large-scale operations.

FAQs

What plants are these growpots suitable for?

These growpots are ideal for strawberries, herbs, and chilli plants, as well as other small to medium-sized plants that benefit from consistent moisture and targeted feeding.

How much water can the outer trough hold?

The outer trough can hold approximately one pint (around 0.5 liters) of water or liquid feed.

Are these pots durable?

Yes, they are made from tough, recyclable plastic designed for durability and reuse over multiple planting seasons.

Can I use these growpots with any type of compost?

Yes, they are compatible with most standard composts. Ensure the compost is suitable for the specific plant you are growing.

How often should I refill the outer trough?

The frequency depends on environmental conditions. Check the trough daily, especially in warm or windy weather, and refill as needed to maintain consistent moisture.

Are these pots suitable for outdoor use?

Absolutely. They are designed for use indoors and outdoors on patios, balconies, and in greenhouses.

What are the dimensions of one growpot?

Each growpot has an outer diameter of approximately 16.5cm (6.5 inches) and a height of 11.5cm (4.5 inches).

Troubleshooting

Plant wilting despite watering

Ensure the outer trough is adequately filled and that the water is reaching the root zone. Check for any blockages in the inner workings of the pot if applicable. Ensure the compost in the inner pot is moist enough to facilitate wicking.

Algae growth in the outer trough

Clean the outer trough regularly. Consider using opaque containers or situating the pots in a location that receives less direct, prolonged sunlight to minimize algae development.

Poor root development

Verify that the ring culture system is functioning correctly, allowing consistent moisture and nutrient delivery. Ensure the compost used is of good quality and suitable for the plant type.

Pest infestation

Inspect plants regularly. While the pots themselves are resistant, treat affected plants with appropriate pest control methods, ensuring they are safe for use with the growpot material.

  • Simplifies the process of growing plants in pots, suitable for beginners.
  • Compact and ideal for small spaces like balconies and greenhouses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your mini growpots, fill the inner section with your chosen compost. Then, fill the outer trough with water or liquid feed, ensuring it reaches the root zone. These pots are compatible with most standard growbags, raised beds, and greenhouse shelving. They are suitable for use on patios, balconies, and indoors. To care for the growpots, clean them between planting seasons using a damp cloth and mild soapy water if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely before storing. Made from recyclable plastic, they are designed for durability and can be reused over multiple seasons.
