GeoPot Self-Supporting Square Bottom - Black (pack of 10)

What Separates GeoPot Grow Bags Black From a Moulded Container

GeoPot grow bags black is a quad-stitched fabric container built from the heaviest nonwoven polypropylene the maker offers. Bonded polyester thread runs the seams, which is what lets the sidewall hold its shape when the pot is full and wet. The pack holds ten pots, and sizes run from 1 to 400 gallons. Air moves through the fabric wall, so a root that reaches the edge stops and branches instead of circling. That is the whole mechanism, and it is why a fabric-grown root ball lifts out as a dense mat rather than a spiral. The top hem is folded over and stitched, which is what makes the pot self-supporting. An empty one stands up on a bench while you fill it, with no frame and no second pair of hands. Soil volume is the number most growers need before anything else. A 1 gal pot holds 0.13 cubic feet and a 200 gal at 27.27 cubic feet. Per cubic yard of soil that works out to 202 of the smallest and a single one of the largest. Pots per cubic yard is the figure to plan a bulk soil delivery around.

Sizing a Square Bottom Fabric Pot Against a Soil Delivery

The square bottom fabric pot is the version to reach for when bench area is the constraint. Four flat sides sit edge to edge on a flood table where round pots leave triangles of wasted tray. A five-gallon measures 12 in across and 10.5 in tall, and the fifteen runs 18 in by 13 in. Those two cover most rotations, and both drop into a standard flood tray without leaving gaps. Black is the one to pick indoors, where irrigation water sets root-zone temperature rather than the sun. There are no handles on this style, so plan the lift before the pot gets wet. A filled large size is a two-person job. Fabric wants more frequent irrigation than plastic, because the sidewall evaporates alongside the surface. Growers running coco in these usually move to several short daily events rather than one long soak. Washing and reusing them is real, and most growers rinse and dry them between crops. A pot that has lost its shape at the rim is close to the end of its working life. Treat the fabric as a consumable that lasts several crops rather than one that lasts forever.

Key Features

• Quad-stitched seams: Bonded polyester thread through four passes, which is what keeps a wet sidewall from splitting at the corner.
• Folded and stitched top hem: The rim holds its own shape, so an empty pot stands upright on the bench while you fill it.
• Square footprint: Flat sides butt together on a flood table instead of leaving the triangular gaps round pots create.
• Seventeen sizes: From a propagation-scale pot through to bed-scale volumes, all on the same fabric and the same seam.
• Volume per size: Cubic feet and pots per yard are listed for each size, so a soil delivery can be calculated rather than guessed.
• Ten pots per pack: Enough to fill a row or a small bench in one go, which is how most rooms actually turn over media.
• Washable fabric: The pots clean up between crops, so the cost spreads across several runs instead of landing on one.
