No Poles included

Please note that no poles/legs are included. The listing includes the bed material and the corner pieces but customers will need to provide their own poles/legs.

Regular pots and beds are made of a breathable nonwoven fabric that allows for excellent air pruning and drainage that can create an interesting problem when used with living soils. Soil in fabric containers dries quickly, from the bottom and the sides. This is generally great for fertigation and other types of growing. However, it is not how soil dries in nature, and the whole point of living soil is to let nature happen, well… naturally.

When compared to their wood counterparts, fabric raised beds are easier to assemble, more affordable, and with less risk of rot, mold, or pest infestation. But if the growing conditions aren’t quite right, traditional fabric growing containers pose their own challenges. Traditional fabric beds drain and dry from all sides. This can cause uneven drainage and dry pockets. It may also require more frequent watering. Grassroots offers an innovative approach to fabric beds that not only improves drainage and aeration, but also supports the soil food web so that plants can grow to their fullest potential. Grassroots Living Soil Fabric Beds feature a waterproof liner and bottom aeration strip. This fosters the optimal environment to cultivate microbes essential for living soil, and creates healthier, more productive plants.

By preventing drainage and drying from all sides of the container, Living Soil Fabric Pots & Beds lengthen the wet-to-dry soil cycle. That means less water usage and lower humidity indoors. They direct water downward, ensuring even distribution throughout. 

Handcrafted with an American-made polypropylene and high-performance bonded thread for mold and mildew resistance. All materials are environmentally friendly and chemically stable. They’re also free of BPA and heavy metals.
