Frequently asked questions:
Why Are EZ Swap Pots Better Than Others On The Market?
We have the most ergonomically designed fabric pot to be the best & most functional fabric pot on the market. We are the only fabric pot made from a single piece of premium heavyweight fabric and the only fabric pot that’s able to expose all sides of the rooball without ever stressing the plant. We simply offer a quality product that minimizes your work load, minimizes transplant shock, and makes transplanting truly easy!
What Are The Advantages Over Plastic Pots?
Nothing could be more important than root health and fabric pots gurantee just that. Its proven fabric pots offer a larger, more fiborus root system by eliminating root circling. Fabric pots also provide better oxygen/air flow to the root system, temeperature control (staying cooler in higher temperates and warming faster during cool seasons). When you have a larger healthier root system you are going to have less pests, disease, and a much better harvest.
How Do EZ Swap Pots Work?
Our pots come undone and are easily put back together with 4 snap buttons. On each side of our square fabric pots contains a flap with a heavy duty snap button. When all 4 sides are unsnapped the fabric can be pulled down to form a saucer around the rootball, exposing all sides of the rootball. Now simply lift the rootball from the fabric and put the plant in its new container. Its hassel free, mess free transplanting at its finest and your plants will thank you for it!
Do The Snaps On The Fabric Pots Hold Up Over Time?
Our snaps are sourced here in America and are heavy duty, BPA free plastic snaps made to be used over and over again. I have personally been using some of my 1st prototypes for over a year now and haven’t had an issue with the snap breaking or pulling through the fabric. Here is a durability test I did with my EZ Swap Pot.
How Long Do Fabric Pots Last?
I’ve personally switched to fabric pots in the summer of 2016 and have been using the same ones since. Since I don’t use bottle nutrients, I simply wash my pots with a hose which will make them last longer. Based on leaders in the industry they should last 3-5 years depending on growing conditions and exposure to weather elements.
What Kind Of Fabric Are EZ Swap Pots Made From?
We make our fabric pots with you and the earth in mind. Our fabric is made of a premium, heavyweight nonwoven polypropylene geotextile. This material is UV resistant, BPA free, and chemically stable so it won’t leach anything harmful into your plants. Our fabric resists rot and breakdown. The best part is these are 100 percent recyclable at the end of their usability!
How Do I Clean My EZ Swap Pots?
We suggest rinsing them with a garden hose outside to knock off the majority of soil and any built up salts from nutrient use. Then they can be machine washed with COLD water and some bleach. NEVER PUT THE FABRIC POTS IN THE DRYER OR NEAR HEAT! Always hang dry and and store indoors somewhere dry.
Will I Need To Water More Frequently?
In short Yes! With more oxygen and air flow at the rootzone, your plant will naturally use more nutrients and water. Coupled with more evaportation (If no extra preventative measures are taken) will lead to more frequent waterings. We are working hard to blog about tips on how you can take preventative measures to help insure you get all the benefits of fabric pots without the hassel of extra watering! In the mean time look into SIPS Container Gardening and Mulching Container Gardens.
Why Does There Appear To Be White Mold/Mildew On My Pots?
This isn’t anything to worry about and is just a sign of salt build up showing on the fabric pot. Salt build up can come from using bottle nutrients and the water source itself. Unless using straight RO water you will typically see this eventually. We suggest washing between harvests if you are seeing salt build up to prevent nutreint burn in future grows.
Can I Use EZ Swap Pots In Hydroponic Applications?
Absolutely! Our fabric pots offer the same great advantage whether your grow style is soil or soilless. The fabric has an excellent wicking capability making it great for many hydroponic applications.
