A polyethylene pot is a flower pot made of polyethylene, not polyvinyl chloride.
Since they are made of vinyl, these pots should not be exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, as they may deteriorate prematurely. They are commonly used for planting both vegetable and flower seeds, and for nurturing seedlings until they are ready for transplantation into open fields.
A polyethylene pot is also referred to as a seedling pot or plastic pot. Made from soft, lightweight material, they are easy to handle and can be safely stacked in large quantities. Reusable and cost-effective, they are a more affordable option compared to pots made from other materials. Sometimes, they are used as disposable items to prevent disease transmission between plants.
Polyethylene pots are primarily used for the temporary growth of vegetable and flower seedlings. The phase between sowing and seedling emergence is critical, as direct sowing in open fields often leads to suboptimal growth due to environmental factors.
Leafy greens, for instance, are vulnerable to animal predation on their young shoots. Moreover, direct outdoor planting is challenging, especially when germination rates are low. Polyethylene pots facilitate the growth of robust seedlings that can be harvested relatively quickly.
These pots create a favorable environment for germination, ensuring uniform seedling growth. This makes cultivation control easier, leading to stable yields and quality after transplanting into open fields.
Different types of polyethylene pots cater to specific needs. Therefore, it’s important to choose the type that best fits your purpose.
This common type usually has a single hole at the bottom. The hole is large, necessitating the use of a net. Available in a range of sizes, these are the most economical choice.
Slit polyethylene pots feature a cutout instead of a hole at the bottom. Generally, a net is not needed, but the slit size varies among products. Therefore, careful examination before purchasing is advised.
Also known as deep polyethylene pots, this variety includes a hole at the bottom, requiring a net. They are particularly suitable for plants that develop deep roots.
Polyethylene pots are available in various sizes, ranging from 3 cm in diameter (No. 1) to 60 cm (No. 20). The ideal size depends on the plant species and the planting season.
For example, a 9 cm (No. 3) pot is commonly used for cucumbers, a 12 cm (No. 4) pot for peppers and tomatoes, and a 15 cm (No. 5) pot for eggplants. No. 3 pots are also popular for flower seedlings. The standard soil capacity is 0.3L for No. 3, 1L for No. 5, and 3L for No. 7.
Additionally, polyethylene pots come in shapes like slit, ventilated, and long types, suitable for different plants and uses. They also offer aesthetic variety, with numerous manufacturers producing colorful and uniquely designed pots.
A key advantage of polyethylene pots is the ease of controlling the growth environment, including soil conditions, humidity, and temperature.
For immature seedlings, maintaining optimal soil and temperature conditions is crucial. Direct planting in open fields often fails to provide an ideal growth environment due to dry soil, temperature fluctuations, humidity, weeds, and pests.
Polyethylene pots enable precise control of the soil environment, temperature, and humidity, especially when used in conjunction with a plastic greenhouse. They also protect seedlings from insects, reducing the risk of pest and disease damage. Additionally, this allows for the selection of only healthy plants for transplantation, reducing space wastage in the field.
Another benefit is reduced labor. In comparison to open fields, a larger number of seedlings can be grown in a smaller space, simplifying tasks like watering, weeding, thinning, and pest control.
Despite their cost-effectiveness and ease of use, polyethylene pots have some disadvantages. The materials, polyethylene and PVC, are quite soft. This makes storage convenient but can lead to deformation when lifted, causing soil displacement. Care should be taken when handling multiple pots simultaneously.
Additionally, frequent repotting is necessary due to the limited size and strength of these pots. As plants grow, larger pots are required, necessitating regular pot changes.
