Using Net Pots allows the roots to grow through the mesh for better breathing and growth. Orchids especially love Net Pots because they thrive on good air circulation in the root zone, exactly what Net Pots do best.
Net Pots allow the roots to grow through the mesh for better breathing and growth. Especially good for growing air loving Orchids and almost all other types of plants.
Growing Medium Recommendations:
We recommend using Expanded Clay or loose Rockwool growing medium in the net pots. The small size of Perlite is not recommended because its small size may clog or go through the mesh. Excellent results have been obtained by using Expanded Clay base and placing a seedling start in a Rockwool cube.

Try our Heavy Duty Net Pots and you'll never toss another broken one away. Designed and manufactured in Australia, they feature a heavier gauge and more dense plastic netting, which is more resistant to cracking and breakdown than the lighter, domestically manufactured net pots.
Available in three sizes, the Heavy Duty Net Pots are perfect to use in almost any kind of hydroponic system, including Ebb & Flow and NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) and the small size even fits the AeroFlo by General Hydroponics.
How do I tell the difference between these and the cheaper pots?
Easy! Just the difference in weight will tip you off. The Heavy Duty Net Pots bend right back into shape without breaking. Try the "Squeeze Test" for yourself and you'll find out why others need to be replaced more often.
