Why a fabric pot is better for roots
In a plastic pot, roots grow out to the smooth wall and then circle round and round. The plant becomes root-bound and struggles to take up water and food.
In this fabric pot, a root tip that reaches the side meets air through the breathable fabric and stops growing there (gardeners call this "air pruning"). The plant then grows lots of new fine roots inside the soil – and the fine roots are the ones that take up water and nutrients. The result is a stronger, healthier plant.
Breathes and drains
- Roots can breathe – air gets through the fabric into the soil.
- No soggy soil – extra water drains out through the sides and bottom, which helps prevent overwatering and root rot.
- Cooler roots – the fabric breathes, so it stays cooler than a black plastic pot in hot sun.
Harvest without digging
Perfect for potatoes, kumara, yams and carrots. When it is time to harvest, just tip the bag over and pour out the soil. Every potato comes out whole and clean – no fork, no cut spuds, nothing left in the ground. Reuse the soil and the bag next season.

- Use it on a deck, balcony, patio, in the garden or a greenhouse
Good to know
- Fabric dries out faster than plastic, so water more often on hot days.
- Water drains through the sides and bottom – on a deck, stand it on a tray or pavers.
- Fill it with a good potting mix rather than heavy garden soil.
- For potatoes: put 3–4 seed potatoes on about 15 cm of mix, and add more mix as the plants grow.
