RootThru Plant-based Pot benefits

The easy-to-use, biobased pot for better roots

  • As plants root through the walls of the pot, they encounter air and are pruned back - this "air pruning" creates a more fibrous, dense, healthy root system for better water and nutrient use efficiency

  • Pots arrive folded and flat to save space, and easily pop open when you are ready to plant 

  • Pots can go in the soil with the plant or be removed and composted

  • More durable than other biodegradable pots, especially when wet

  • Eco-friendly, peat-free, and made from 100% plant-based materials

  • Patent pending and proudly made in the USA

How to use

Pots arrive to the grower flat (1). To get started, push in on two opposite corners of the pot (2) until the bottom automatically locks into place (3 and 4). Then fill pots with growing media (5), plant your seeds, and water (6).

How are RootThru Plant-based Pots made?

RootThru Plant-based Pots are formed from our patent-pending composite fabric made from two sustainable, plant-based materials. We've combined the benefits of each material through our proprietary bonding processes to address the pitfalls of plastic, peat-based, and paper wrap plant pots.

Outer layers

These layers are made from sustainably-sourced Kraft paper. It provides the rigidity and structure needed to create a free-standing plant pot.

Core layer

This inner core layer is made from polylactic acid (PLA), which is a nonsynthetic, renewable plant-based product. PLA is durable, flexible, UV resistant, and adds strength to the paper in wet conditions.
