Why Use Bunnings Pots?
If you are new to container gardening then you may be unaware of what Bunnings pots is. Well they are a type of container which is available in a variety of materials. This type of gardening has grown in popularity in recent years as it provides an easy way of adding small plant pots to a garden. There are many advantages associated with Bunnings pots, here we will look at some of these.
Firstly, Bunnings pots are extremely easy to maintain and they do not dry out very quickly or even at all. If you have ever tried to use a Bunnings pot before you may know how easily they can get ruined. Soil tends to be extremely porous so water can easily seep through and cause the roots of your plants to rot. The porous soil also allows air to get to the roots of the plants much easier this then again adds to the moisture on the soil that the plants need to grow. In fact, without proper drainage your plants will take root almost immediately and you may find your efforts quite difficult.
Another added benefit of using Bunnings Pots is that they are very easy to take care of. You do not have to be concerned about rotting plants as it is very likely that none of your plants will ever suffer from rot. Bunnings Pots are designed to be planted on top of the soil so you don’t have to be concerned about roots getting snagged on gravel. Also, if you wish to move your plants around you will not have to deal with roots hanging over.
There is nothing more relaxing than sipping tea in your very own pot. They look extremely elegant sitting in your kitchen and look just as good sipping tea in your guestroom if you so wish. The container garden has now moved indoors and all your plants will fit in perfectly with the beautiful decor.
If you decide container gardening is for you then Bunnings offers a range of great pots and accessories to help you get off to a flying start. However before you rush out and buy any accessories you need to consider how much space you have available. You will also need to think about how much soil you have available as well as whether you are going to want a raised bed or a traditional soil-based container. If you are living in a studio apartment then you can even use Bunnings pots and simple drainage systems to make your container garden appear even more impressive.
The main benefit of Bunnings pots and accessories is that they are designed with long-term use in mind. Unlike other container gardening systems you do not have to replace your Bunnings pots every year as this can easily run into the thousands. Instead, they can last for many years so you do not have to worry about them breaking down as quickly. Plus, if you clean your Bunnings pots regularly you will also save a lot of hassle. The best way to do this is by choosing a good quality potting soil which will help to keep your plants healthy.
Of course the main attraction of Bunnings pots is that they are not only attractive but also very functional. They have an excellent built-in drainage system which helps to prevent roots rot and encourages healthy root growth. This is essential when you are using Bunnings pots as a form of container gardening as if you do not have a good drainage system then the roots can end up getting damaged. If you live in an area where rain can be unexpected then it is even more important to ensure your Bunnings potting soil has been drained before planting.
When you are choosing Bunnings pots there are many things to look for but the most important point is to choose a potting soil that will suit the type of plant you are growing. As there are many different types of Bunnings you should first have a look at the plants you intend to grow before you buy a pot as this will ensure that the pot you buy will best suit your particular plant. A Bunnings pot will look best with some kind of drainage system but if you want your plants to look bigger than you could consider purchasing some Bunnings planters. With Bunnings planters you get a bigger variety of plants than with pots but in general they tend to be more expensive.
