I wonder if these pots would be suitable for putting prebonsai in? Would they be ok to start training a juniper bonsai in?

I would think that wouldnt be a problem but a 5 gallon might be on the larger side I am not familiar with the root system for a bonsai tree but would assume a 1-2 gallon would be a better buy just my opinion as these pots are supposed to air trim the roots. Again if I knew about if they produce massive roots or not I could maybe answer this better.

These pots are supposed to be just fine for bonsai. You might try a smaller pot though.

Don't see why not. They are long tweezers and made of stainless steel. I use them to plant succulents in large pots. Good luck!

Carole,These did not work for us in outdoor pots, and we followed the instructions carefully. For what I read, they appeared to have worked for others. Perhaps it would depend on how much humidity would be in the atmosphere.. Sorry I could not be more help.. Irene

I think so. They are not huge and the quality is pretty good. I've had one sitting outside for some months and it still collects water. And, given that there are ridges, the pots would be less likely to become waterlogged.

You can if you start them indoors your season may be shorter also they are good contaner plants I have mine in a pot they do need something to climb on. they are actualy a form of a gerkin. pickel hope that helped

More depth is always better, up till about a foot (these plants are not that large, and I think this is about where max root depth would be.) Larger pots also contain more water, so you have to ask yourself how often does it rain or do I want to water them? I used 5 inches for horizontal spacing. Got a decent number of berries.

The miracle grow should be fine as long as it's diluted correctly. As for putting them in the plant pots, you may have a problem there. Most houses have a low humidity and these mosses enjoy a high humidity. For the price, it may be worth it to give it a shot. I'd put a different moss in each pot and see which one does the best. Then order more of that specific kind to fill the other pots. Hope this helps...

I would say yes but you would need to get something bigger as they get older ad grow. If your looking for something you can use for a long time I would go bigger.

I don't see why they wouldn't work for seed starting. What type of seeds are you attempting to grow? Typically plants in net pots either need lots of air at the roots such as orchids or are growing hydroponically with no soil.

I am not an expert, but I purchased a book from amazon entitled "bonsai for beginners." It has been a great help. The book does depict various grooming and the need to upsize the pot after significant root growth. Get the book. It was a penny plus 3.99 shipping and handling.

I would have to say no. Maybe in 4's. If you want to start individuals go with a bigger peat pot. Maybe 4"

Pots are lightweight. I think even if you weight the pot down with sand or anything else a 4 ft tree is to large for pot and tipping would be an issue.

Probably would work fine. They might be a bit to large for small seedling pots, but you can break the stakes into small pieces if you'd like to use them in small pots.

Hi Chad,I purchase these last year and put 8inch pots up with them and they lasted all through a Colorado summer and winter. They were super sturdy!

yes they would work perfectly in 2" net pots I used 3" net pots and the pot is a little too big. Next time i will be using 2" pots for sure. And these things really work great

It should work.. It's actually what I'm planning to do because I'm up in the mountains and we get weather well below freezing in the winter. I'd use a good sized pot and you'll want to trim shrub and roots back probably after the growing season.

I think they would work for fine for herb plants-especially if you are starting them from seed. Of course as they grow and become root-bound, you would need to go to a larger size pot. You would also need to have some kind of tray under them because of the holes. Hope this answers your question.
