Last summer I grew huge heirloom tomatoes, one in each bag. Because these bags are deep, I could still use stakes and cages to support the plants. Handles and lightweight construction make bags easy to move if necessary due to too much heat or sun. Fabric allows some air circulation to roots, so less chance of root rot; just be sure to water enough when necessary. Once growing season is finished, simply empty, dry out thoroughly, fold and store. A suitable option if you're tired of heavy, cumbersome pots.

These bags are very versatile, they allow me to plant a variety of plants and move them around using the sturdy handles. Material is thick. Bags look great and hold shape. They are nice and big and can hold multiple plants. Water does pass through them easily but not a big deal. Good price point. I’m happy with them.

Great addition to the garden space if you want to grow some tomatoes and or Potatoes in the garden

These are functioning as expected. I needed a quick solution when the price of lumber went sky high, and my plans for building a number of wooden raised beds became too expensive. I bought the “20 gallon” size for tomato plants, and I knew from reviews the bags would not really hold 20 gallons. Closer to 16 or 17 gallons. But, wow, be prepared that takes a huge amount of soil to fill these things even halfway! I used a lot of vermiculite, half composted clippings and pinecones in the bottom, before adding lots of purchased potting soil. I filled the bags about 70% As for the the size of bags — perhaps I might have done just as well with the 15 gallon bags and filled them close to the top. I made no attempt to move or lift these 20-gallon bags by the handles, even after filling them halfway. It would be foolish; the handles aren’t designed for that type of load. I have been able to drag and shift them a little as needed. The bags look surprisingly good in the garden. One problem is that traditional wire cages for tomatoes can’t be pushed into the ground; the depth and density of the soil in these bags isn’t adequately deep and firm to provide stability for wire cages. I’ve tried several solutions: After pushing the cage into the soil in the bag, as far as it will go, drive a tall stake or pole into the ground next to the bag’s sude, and tie the tomato cage to the stake. Or simply push a second cage into the ground next to the bag, and then tie the second cage to the first cage. It gives stability, and the tomatoes can sprawl across both cages. Like others, I am finding that these bags do not hold moisture sufficiently. The soil gets extremely dry in a very short time after watering, even in the enormous 20-gallon bags. When you water the plants, the water simply runs out on the sides in the bottom. The porous sides allow moisture to evaporate quickly on a warm day, after you water. Overall, I’m satisfied but not thrilled. These bags are not bad, but the price for a few synthetic bags seems high. Edit: the second year, I put large pieces of cardboard or some old raggedy cotton shirts on the bottom and sides of the grow-bags. That helped keep the water from running out so fast. I thought of using plastic, but I wasn’t sure if certain kinds of plastic would harm the healthfulness of my tomatoes.

I planted blueberry plants in these this past spring and they have done really well in them. I keep these 20 gallon pots sitting on upside down milk crates to try to prevent the bottoms from rotting out and they are holding up very well and the handles still have no problem supporting the weight. 1 year update - My blueberries did so well in these 20 gallon pots their first year I decided to try a few more. This year I added more blueberries, some raspberries and blackberries. I swapped the milk crates for cinder blocks to increase stability plus I think they look less tacky. They were all picked up and moved around several times during the rearrangement and all the handles and seams are still holding up well. 2 year update - We purchased a new house last fall and they all made the move to the new house without incident. Not a single handle has failed and they are all holding up well (except for the one I hit with the weed eater). 3 year update - these bags are still holding up great and they now sit in a rock bed against the back porch. I'm confident they'll make it atleast 1 more year. 5 year update - the bags that sit on the rock beds are still going strong. We moved them all a few times this spring to avoid frost damage and still have had zero handle failures. The bags on the concrete pool deck however are starting to break down and have moss growing on the outside. These bags are reaching the end of their lifespan and will likely be replaced this coming winter.

I have been looking for affordable planters for patio shrubs for a long time. Even the plastic planters are expensive when looking for the larger sizes. I decided to give planting bags a try. Wow, what a great affordable solution. I purchased 18-20” planter trays and set these bags in them to catch any overflow. These bags are really strong and stand up straight and smooth when full of soil. There is no sign of any damage from the sun, high temps or watering. The best surprise is how well my flowering shrubs are doing in these grow bags. I’ve planted 4 three gallon shrubs and they have all more than doubled in size in a month. The black planting bags sitting in plant trays look really nice on my patio. When I water, there is no seepage thru the sides of the bags. They hold the water, well. I am able to turn the shrubs by rotating the plant trays.(The bags are too heavy to try to turn with the plant bag handles) I am so happy I decided to give these a try. I could not be happier with the price and quality. I ended up with 4 beautiful patio plants at less than the cost of 1 large shrub-sized planter.

Luv it !

Ich habe in diesen Pflanzsäcken meine Heidelbeeren angebaut, da ich ansonsten keine saure Erde im Garten habe. Seitdem ich sie in diesen Säcken gepflanzt habe wachsen meine Heidelbeeren endlich vernünftig und geben mir eine reiche Ernte.

Back in April we ordered 5 x 10 gal and 5 x 20 gal to experiment. We also had 15 bales of straw for growing. The bales were a bust this year and we won't do them again. However, the bags were fabulous. Our friends ordered beige and we ordered black. Trust me....order black. Orders look like new and theirs are dirty looking. We just ordered 25 bags of the 30 gallon size to make up for the bale loss for next year. The height also makes it easier for picking. If we run out of veg to grow, they're attractive enough to hold flowers on the deck and front entrance.

very good for growing vegs

Top Qualität und sind nicht einweg.

I've bought a pack of the 5 gallon and a pack of the 20 gallon so far. I live in a rental property and didn't want to go digging up the landlord's backyard and these are a great alternative to the classic plastic pots. The handles are sturdy, I haven't had one break yet and I move the pots around quite a bit. The 20 gallon pots are just big enough that the bunnies can't nibble on my plants. Only downside of these compared to plastic pots is that someone weed-wacked a little too close to one of them one day and now there's some tears in the sides. Barely any dirt comes out of the holes though, even when I move it and will try to sew it up at the end of the season.
