Airpots, from www.airpotgarden.com ,have been used by commercial growers for several years mainly to grow large trees and shrubs in containers. The idea behind them is that the roots of the plant grow through the holes in the sides of the container, they then dehydrate and thus are pruned by the air, so that they branch further back and downwards in the pot and preventing the roots from encircling the sides of the pot.
The pots are now available on the retail market.The depth of the airpots make them perfect for a range of fruit and veg including potatoes, tomatoes and tree and bush fruit such as apples grown on a dwarfing rootstock. They are not cheap but will last many years and are very cool looking.
'It's all about the roots and the Air-Pot is simply the best way to grow vigorous, healthy plants that produce abundant, healthy crops.
Filled with soil, or your own special potting mix, Air-Pots produce good roots and therefore, good root vegetables.
For other vegetables and fruit, Air-Pots allow you to concentrate on what you can see - the stem, the crown, the flower and fruit - because you can be sure that the foundations are right.
Use under glass, or inside, for tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, chillies, aubergines and lots more.
Use in the garden, for potatoes, sweet potatoes, other root vegetbles and pot grown fruit.
