It's what's NOT in the DOT Pot™ that makes it better!
Unlike glued peat moss pots, biodegradable DOT Pots are made from all natural wood fibers, 80% spruce fibers and 20% peat moss and nothing else! DOT Pots contain zero glues or binders -- allowing the plant roots to grow right through the pot during a normal production cycle. The plant's growth is not impeded by the walls of the pot. This creates a vigorous, non-girdled root system that spreads out evenly and uniformly.
Air pruning is taken to a whole new level.
The highly porous technology of the DOT Pots allows us to exclude one more ingredient from the DOT Pot -- drain holes. Without glue or binders, air and water flow freely through the entire container without the need for drain holes. Why reduce air pruning to a few dime-sized holes or narrow slots? DOT Pots achieve even air pruning along the entire container surface. Not only are DOT Pots 100% biodegradable, but they are 100% OMRI Listed® as well. Now you can forget about the plastic waste and the disposal hassles of traditional plastic containers. When you plant a DOT Pot, both you and Mother Nature will be smiling.
Bottom line? Profitable plant performance!
The results are quicker establishment of production plants in the landscape and faster production time when stepping up material and with hard to transplant crops. And DOT Pots can be used with an auger during landscape installation for even more labor savings. |
