Soil Growers' Favorite! The original and the best air pruning container. Made in the UK from recycled plastic since 1997.
Are you ready to take your home garden to the next level? Look no further than Air Pots - the game-changer in modern gardening.
AirPots are great for transplanting seedlings and cuttings from smaller containers. Plants can be kept for one to two seasons before transplanting into a larger pot, or directly in the garden. It is also possible to continue growing in this pot past the second season, just keep watering and fertilizing as required. The root system will continue to flourish and will produce a lot of leaves.
Nurseries in many countries are reaping the benefits of the Air Pot planter. From the small to the very large, the Air-Pot system is truly unique in its ability to containerize any size. Fruit and vegetable growers are learning the benefits of the Air-Pot system.
Both commercial and hobby growers see improved growth times and prize-winning results. Growers across the globe have adopted the Air-Pot system for their work in research and conservation.
The top plant experts have embraced the benefits of Air-Pot®. Landscape Designers like the instant start and almost 100% success rate of Air-Pot® grown stock. Top landscapers are seeking out Air-Pot® by name to use for high end projects. Around the world the Air-Pot system is effective from the Tropics to the Arctic circle, Air-Pot® for all species.
COMPOST
The Air-Pot container is just one part of a total growing system. To reap all its potential benefits it is essential to use a suitable compost mix and give the plant sufficient water.
Lack of aeration and poor drainage are big problems when growing in traditional containers. However no such problems exist with the Air-Pot system. Increased air flow means that the compost can be compacted in the containers without becoming anaerobic. More compost means more nutrients for the plant.
HYDRO
Airpots can still be used in hydroponics. This is especially true in systems that use a growing medium like coco coir, perlite, or a mixture of these substrates. Airpots have several advantages that can benefit hydroponic growers:
- Improved aeration: Airpots are designed with fabric sides that allow air to permeate the root zone. This enhanced aeration can help prevent over watering and promote oxygen exchange in the root zone. It also can reduce the risk of root rot in hydroponic systems.
- Stronger root growth: The air pruning effect of airpots help roots to grow more fibrous and densely. This can lead to healthier and more efficient nutrient uptake in hydroponic systems.
- Temperature regulation: The breathable fabric of airpots can help regulate the temperature of the root zone. It does so by allowing excess heat to dissipate. This can be beneficial for keeping optimal root health in hydroponics.
- Easy transplanting: Airpots are known for their ease of transplanting. You can start your plants traditionally and move them to your hydroponic set up with ease.
WATER
With standard pots, over watering can be a constant worry. Air Pots feature breathable fabric sides, allowing excess moisture to escape, preventing root rot, and giving a balanced, moisture-retentive environment.
The increased rate of growth and the much greater number of new white tipped roots means healthy plants. It also means healthy plants demand more water and nutrients. Managing this demand is a huge part to the success of the system.
Ideally Air-Pot grown plants should be watered with a drip system. This is the preferred choice of growers. Whether you’re a large grow or hobby grower. Simple cheap systems can now be made from garden centers.
Hand watering is equally effective despite what some may think. There are two or more rows of uncut cones at the top of the container to form a water reservoir.
QUALITY CONSTRUCTION
Provides strength, rigidity and longevity. The Air-Pot is made from extra tough 100% HDPE plastic and can be used again and again and again.
Air Pots come in various sizes to suit your gardening needs. They are made from high-quality, UV-resistant materials. They withstand the elements and last for seasons, saving you money in the long run.
BETTER POROSITY
Boosts nutrients in your soil while helping growth. The porosity of the Air-Pot provides better conditions for bacteria activity thus making nutrients more available to the plant. This improves growth and boosts defense to disease.
3-D CONE SHAPED WALLS
Prevents root circling. The inward pointing cones prevent root circling and direct roots outwards towards the open ended cones. Because the air density of the medium is too great, the roots are effectively air-pruned. For fast, vigorous plants and high yield.
All of the medium is quickly filled with a vast number of highly active root tips. The shear mass and efficiency of the root system increases nutrient uptake. It can increase by as much as 15% leading to more growth and higher yields.
FLEXIBLE & HANDY
Use your preferred medium and system. The Air-Pot can be used with a wide range of organic or hydroponic media. It can be hand watered or used with drip irrigation or ebb n flow systems.
The Air-Pot's raised base prevents plants from standing in water or on cold surfaces. This provides better airflow and better conditions for growth.
Tight on space? No problem! Air Pots come in compact sizes, perfect for balconies, patios, or even indoor gardening. Max out your growing area without giving up plant health.
Less time worrying about watering, transplant shock, and root issues means more time enjoying your garden. Air Pots make gardening more enjoyable and less stressful. Air Pots are also eco-friendly! Their reusable design reduces waste, and their improved root systems require fewer fertilizers and water, contributing to a greener planet.
