Description

what is a slit pot?

  1. Slit pots are ideal plant pots designed to faithfully reproduce the rooting of the earth in a pot. The pot prevents the root circling phenomenon, so that more than 90% of the potting soil can be used effectively, which has a significant effect on the growth of the plant. Ideal for all types of gardening, including wildflowers, orchids, oriental orchids, classical plants, roses, succulents, fruit trees and vegetables. Use especially for special and important plants. Slit pots promote ideal rooting and keep plants lively. It also has many other advantages. These innovative pots are plant-friendly.

Features and advantages of slit pots

  1. A slit pot is a pot without a bottom hole and has narrow slits running from the bottom to the sides. The slit pot provides ideal rooting for the plant. Plants planted in the ground have roots in all directions and take in the nutrients they need to grow. This ideal rooting is also achieved in the pot, encouraging plant growth.
  2. Special technology slits reduce cultivation losses. The uniquely designed slits allow the roots to grow strong, thereby reducing cultivation losses. It is also ideal for managing the parent tree, as the amount of roots is proportional to the growth of flower buds. (Beware of similar products. )
  3. Reduces the number of potting up. Slit pots can minimise root blockage and reduce the number of potting ups to a minimum, whereas potting up is generally done before root blockage occurs.
  4. The slit effect eliminates water stagnation and improves drainage, thus eliminating root rot.
  5. Wide range of variants to suit different applications. A wide range of variations are available to suit different applications and purposes, from large types with an outer diameter of 30 cm to small types with an outer diameter of 6 cm.

What is the circling phenomenon?

  1. This is a phenomenon in which roots that have lost their way in the pot extend along the walls of the pot, resulting in a spiral-like movement around the pot. The roots become less branched and, depending on the species, become woody. It is one of the typical conditions of root clogging and significantly reduces the efficiency of the use of the potting medium. The slit pot's slits as well as the subtle bumps and unevenness inside increase the fine roots (roots that have subdivided by touching the bumps and slits), which are the source of plant growth.

Problems with the circling phenomenon

  1. Not only does it hinder growth, it also makes management more difficult. Management methods differ depending on the grower and the growing environment. The plants cannot cope with these different conditions and will not last as long. Roots with circling problems grow with only a small amount of root mass, and if these roots are damaged, the plant will soon die. Nodal trunks are also prone to the same kind of growth. The roots are easily damaged, making the plant susceptible to disease.
