Air‑Pot® – Root-active pots from 1 L to 20 L
The Air‑Pot® pots, with their special design featuring side openings, promote natural root branching—also known as air pruning . Instead of growing in circles, the roots branch out at the points of air contact, increasing root volume and improving nutrient uptake. The result: healthier plants, faster growth, and stronger root systems .
Available sizes:
1 L : Ø 100 mm × H 145 mm – ideal for cuttings & seedlings
3 L : Ø 150 mm × H 220 mm – for young vegetable plants or herbs
5 L : Ø 190 mm × H 240 mm – ideal for medium plants
9 L : Ø 225 mm × H 270 mm – for strong growth phases
20 L : Ø 310 mm × H 315 mm – for large plants such as tomatoes, shrubs, chili
