Net Pot Liners

[The Student]

Hello,

Has any one ever used these:

CocoTek 6" Net Pot/Basket Liner

These 100% organic coconut fiber and natural rubber liners fit inside plastic net pot/baskets and help keep the growing medium from falling through. Plant roots will grow right through the liners.

Does anyone think that these will work without disintegrating all over the place?

If they do stay together do you think that they will prevent (to any degree) the roots from getting through?

Thank you for any help.

Peace

It should let the roots go threw...probably designed after peat pellets

Hello,

I am thinking that they would grow out just fine also, but am just not sure.

Thank you for the reply.

I think that I am just going to order some and check them out.

I will let everyone know if they are user/plant friendly.

Take care.

Peace

I would like to try them,but all my pots are 8",but the choice of mediums you can use is endless with that product,I'll get some if i can find the size i need,thanks student,that was a real nice find....bonbon

i forgot to add that coir holds up very well,I've used blocks and slabs through entire growth cycles without any breakdown,in a fairly hot nute mix(5.3-5.8)and the rubber should add some extra stability....bonbon

Here is a link to a hydro store that carries 8" net pot liners. They are made by the same company (CocoTek). 8" Net Pot Liners (http://advancedindooragriculture.com/surcat/product_info.php?cPath=27_135&products_id=866&osCsid=03e542c1dc48bd425c19880fc39e393b)

Hello,

I went ahead and bought some of the net liners. They seem to look like they will work well.

I have not tried them out yet, I have to wait till next round.

Here are a couple shots of them though.

Peace
