Viagrow Grow Bags Thick Plastic Grow Bags for Potting, Seedlings, Rootings, 3 Gallon 50 Pack, White

I expected thicker durability, but they do the job. Overall they work, but they are difficult to fill because they won't stand up while you're trying to put soil in them. I ended up cutting the bottom off of one of my biggest pots and using it as sort of a funnel. They are about the same thickness/durability as plastic trash bag. This means that when you move them while they are full, they stretch and rip if you're not very very careful. I'll keep using them with this educational experience.

They are easy to fill and reflects the sun so the plants don’t over heat.

It’s exactly what I needed for a temporary use bag. Good quality bags at a nice price

Grow bags for container gardens can be expensive so I decided to try using these nursery bags. They're very sturdy and have good drainage. My garden plants are thriving. The only thing keeping me from giving a give star review is the bottom. They're not flat on the bottom so filling them with soil can be a pain, but once there's about an inch or two of soil inside, they stand up readily and filling gets much easier.

These are great! I have A LOT of tomato plants I started through the winter and was quickly running out of pots to put them all in. I couldn't find any inexpensive pots, even just the growers pots were a bit much for 25-30 grown plants (we won't discuss the 20 or so more I have starting also). These bags were perfect for what I needed!I really could have used just the 5 gallon bags though - these are pretty big, but because they're bags, I just folded them in half and only fill them halfway for the smaller plants. Once they get bigger I can always fill it more.This size also tends to be a bit wider than tall which makes stability of taller plants a bit awkward, but that can be worked with.They are a bit difficult to move once they're filled, and you can't slide them, but they are durable! We picked them up and moved them in the room and will move them outside in another month, so it's not impossible.The holes were a bit of a challenge since we're not out of the threat for frost yet and have to keep the plants inside still, so I put "piddle pads" in the bottom and water lightly twice a day instead of heavily once. Once I can move them outside, I'll start watering normally again and poke the holes through the pads to allow them to drain again.I would recommend these for people who just need a pot, nothing fancy. I will definitely be buying more for the same purpose. Excellent price if they were a one year use, but I think I'll get several years out of them if I don't beat them up.

I live in Texas and the summers are brutal on some plants. I like that the bags are white allowing for least absorption of heat to prevent the roots from frying like the roads in Texas do. There is a sufficient amount of holes at the bottom of bag, but if you want to make extra holes it is easy to do by just laying it flat, and using a skewer to add holes where you want them, before filling the bag with soil.Like the others have mentioned before, don't fill the bag up with soil to the top at first....fill it up a quarter of the way and then straighten it out the bottom before filling it up all the way, that way you're not having to straighten it up with the weight of a full bag of soil over your hand. The bags are easy to use and I like how if I need to fit them into a tight spot, since it is a bag it can be manipulated into fitting. Oh and when a surprise cold front came in for a couple days, I was able to temporarily unroll the top and this created a nice wall around my plant blocking out the cold winds.....then just rolled it back down again once the cold left.

They can sit a little lopsided no matter how hard you try, but they're easily adjustable enough that you can maneuver them to not fall over. They're also really thick, at least in the 1 gallon size I bought they're more than durable enough for the season. At this price, you can't beat it at least for younger plants. I have not tried the bigger sizes yet.

I bought these to take advantage of some extra paved are next to my raised garden beds. I filled the bags with a more acidic soil mix for potatoes, so it is super handy to be able to keep that soil segregated.The material is heavy duty but not indestructible like a dedicated reusable soft sided planter. Once filled more than halfway, lifting the bag from the top edge seems like it may cause the plastic to tear. Best to fill the bags once you have settled on your location.The bags do sag quite a lot from the weight of the soil compared to the seller’s pictures. The actual shape when full is much more bulged out and settled.No obvious signs of damage from sun exposure yet. There were no tears from sticks or rocks while filling and adjusting the bag’s placement. I expect that I will be able to use these several times at least. Good value for an unexciting but useful product.

These bags are horrible and cause root rot in or outdoors, roots get suffocated. 7 gallon and my plants aren't even 1/4 way grown! No way these are for plants that need and grow in regular 7gallon proper plant pots.Will not be using these again and had to transplant back to pots.Not only wastes your money on the bags because you'll need to cut them open because the soil won't dry to be able to transplant which the rotting soil falls all over in having to do, but you need to throw out the rotted soil and use fresh soil in hopes any of your plants can survive shocking their roots in having to do a root rot transplant.

Some reviews hlmay have complained about the thin material, or that it's shorter than smaller models, or that the bottom isn't flat.These people simply don't have patience and perhaps not enough soil to fill all these. You might be able to see a tear on one of them but that's because I tried to move the bag without much thought. I adapted and bearhug it from the base to shift them.The bottoms flatten as you fill soil and adjust the bag as you fill it to level it out.I emptied two of my big compost bins and 3 big bags on promix in these 7 bags and look... They are fine. I'm quite happy so far.I got them in hopes they would keep the plants cool through the high heat of summer and lack of water when we go away on weekends, although I will add irrigation soon.Buy them... They're easy to use, they work well for what they are and they keep the plant soil cool. I touch the outside of the bags in the heat of the day and they are cool to the touch.I folded the lips inward for additional cooling support, unlike the ad photo.

I didn't think these were still made was super excited to find some!To all the reviews stating they don't drain and cause root rot... The bags are peppered with holes in the bottom for drainage and need to be elevated slightly (indoor in a tent) to drain properly.These have been all I have ever used !Cheaper than buckets start low and roll the bag up and top dress from seed , no more transplanting start in one container10/5 stars will buy again!Ps- take a thumbtack and poke holes in the side instand air pruning bag 👍Also recommend putting stakes in with soil for added structure!Grow on@growganic420

I use this product last year. They are a cheaper alternative. I was not intending for my plants to stay in the bags. I did plant them outside, I was trying to keep my cost down and give room for my pepper plants to grow. For something I was not planning on keeping this was a great alternative.

If you are looking for the best bang for your buck for potting alternatives this is the answer. Super low cost, white finish is good for reflection and the only downfall being you should not move them around a lot while the roots are taking hold.
