Air-Pot is a recyclable, reusable plastic container that actively enhances the root system of plants. The Air-Pot is suitable for use with a wide range of growing media and is used in passive or hydroponics systems. Suitable for soil or hydroponic applications, the Air-Pot allows your plants to develop a remarkable radial root system that simply cannot be matched in any other growing container.
The Air-Pot is delivered to you as a flat packed kit that assembles in seconds. After harvest Air-pots are easy to disassemble, clean and store. The Air-Pot is made from extra tough 100% recycled HDPE plastic and can be used again and again…
*Includes Air-pot base + fixing.

How the Air-Pot works?
The walls of the Air- Pot are made of inward pointing cones and open ended, outward pointing cones. As such there are no flat surfaces on the inside of the container to deflect the roots and start the circling process.The inward pointing cones direct the roots towards the open ended cones where the root tip senses the atmosphere and prunes itself.
The plant responds to this “air-pruning” by sending out more roots to compensate for the loss. This very quickly leads to the entire volume of medium being filled with a vast number of highly active root tips and no unhealthy circling roots. The shear mass and efficiency of the root system increases the plants uptake by approximately 15% leading to accelerated growth and higher yields.
The raised base prevents plants from standing in water or on cold surfaces providing superior oxygenation and better conditions for growth.
Dimensions:
1 litre- Diameter: 100mm Height: 145mm
Use to grow rooted seedling or clones. It produces an extremely hardy young plant with a root structure that allows it to transplant much more effectively into larger pots.
3 litre- Diameter: 150mm Height: 235mm
For intensive hydroponic or coco systems. Plants can be grown up to 60cm tall.
5 litre- Diameter: 231mm Height: 235mm
Full term growth and bloom where space is an issue. Ideal for mother plants when space is limited. Plants can be grown up to 90cm tall.
9 litre- Diameter: 230mm Height: 320mm
Popular with soil growers. Plants can be grown up to 100cm. Can be used as long term containers for mother plants.
12.5 litre- Diameter: 306mm Height: 275mm
Grow trees and shrubs in the 12.5 litre for a season before planting out
20 litre- Diameter: 354mm Height: 315mm
After two or even three years in a 20 litre Air-Pot container, trees and shrubs are a substantial size and will establish in your garden instantly.
38 litre Air-Pots- Diameter: 428mm Height: 435mm
1ltr – 5ltr are supplied 1 screw per pot, larger sizes are 2 screws per pot.
