Viagrow 3 Gal. Plastic Nursery Pots (11.36 Liters) 10-Pack

I needed inexpensive plastic nursery pots for my moringa seedlings. The cheapest one that fit my needs from a local home improvement store was 98 cents each before tax. A similar pot from a local gardening supply store was 41 cents each before tax. After having purchased 15 pots from the aforementioned gardening supply store for immediate use, I continued to look elsewhere for a cheaper price because I needed a lot more. A search on Amazon led me to the Viagrow 2.37-Liter Plastic Nursery Pots. Pre-tax, these pots are 28 cents each when purchased per 100-pack. I placed the order and two days later, the pots were in my front door.Based on the comments, I was a bit worried that the Viagrow pots may be too thin and fragile. However, after receiving them, I was happy to find out that they fit my requirements perfectly. While these pots are not thick and heavy duty compared to others, I was able to crumple one multiple times and easily return it back to its original shape. There were crumple marks but the pot remained usable. See included photos of a crumpled pot and what it looks like after it was restored. They also do not tear easily and at 28 cents each before tax, they are a bargain in my opinion. I have already purchased my second 100-pack and have used 105 pots far. While I would not describe these as heavy duty, they do hold up to a good beating and still remain usable. There are also 9 holes at the bottom for ample drainage.Pros- Inexpensive- Does not tear easily- Excellent drainage- ReusableCons- NoneIf you’re a casual gardener and don’t require the heavy duty ones that do not bend, then consider the Viagrow nursery pots. For the price, it’s hard to find similar pots that is better in quality and cheaper in price. I will definitely be purchasing more and reuse them for as long as possible.Do take a look at the included photos for actual measurements and crumple test results. These are customer photos I wished were available for other Amazon shoppers during my research.

NOT 5 GALLONS!!! NOT EVEN 4 1/2 GALLONS!!! 4.02 GALLONS? PACKAGING SAYS 5 GALLONS POTS NOT ONLY LOOKED SMALL BUT RIGHT ON THE BOTTOM ITS CLEARLY SHOWING THESE ARE 4 GALLON POTS!!! To top this they are very thin.

Horrible cheap thin plastic. Holes at the bottom are way too big to retain soil. Pots are deformed and not flat in any sense of the word. In the image it would appear that the tops of the pots are flush and at the very least smooth. As you can see from the image I have uploaded that the plastic is so thin it has been torn along the bottom. It is also so thin that trying to fill the pot with soil and carrying it would make the pot tear spilling the contents all over the ground. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. These people are ripping us off...

These are a lightweight pot, but I think they are great for things like starting Dahlia tubers. In the past, I purchased them from home box stores for about $1 each. These are very comparable, but only about $0.35 each. If you need a lot of starter pots at a low price, these are great, IMHO. I included a photo showing they came well packed with no damage, and a side by side with a $1 pot from HD.

The pots are very thin and cheaply made, break easily and they look nothing like the advertisement. You can push on the side with your finger and it bend in about 3 inches. I would not recommend buying this product. I feel like I was duped.☆☆☆UPDATE ☆☆☆The pots are thin and flimsy, but they have done their job and were a great value, (plastic pots are outrageously priced). I think I spoke too soon about these. If you are careful with them, they will serve you well. They still don't look like the picture.

These are like the pots that new plants come in, great for rooting new plants. Not a long term pot.I liked these pots, as they are good for growing babies to give away. I ordered a second time as a gift for someone. They only received 6 pots. I'm not asking them to return it to Amazon, but it's the last time I will buy any.

These are a good quality for the price! They say they are 1 gallon, but I have 2 gallon fabric pots and these are definitely not half the volume of the 2 gal. They do have sufficient drain holes in the bottom. They seem to be pretty durable. The only problem I did have with them (which isn't really a deal breaker for me) is that when they were made, the stamp that cut out the drain holes on the bottom sometimes didn't do a good job, and I had to go through the stack and cut a bunch out myself. Like I said, it wasn't a problem for me but if you buy these in bulk, it would definitely be a problem for you! Overall a good quality pot at a reasonable price.

Original 5-star review: These are nursery pots like you see small trees and shrubs growing in at garden centers - they're thin but do the same job as a more expensive product. I expect these will last me several growing seasons provided I handle them with care while they're filled up. Good value for the price. They did have a very potent 'burnt plastic' smell, but that went away after leaving them outside unstacked for a day or two. Also some of the scrap pieces from where the drainage holes were punched out are still attached, but pulled off with ease.Update 6/2/16 - I liked these so much that I ordered a second 10-pack. Unfortunately this pack contained several pots with very thin, weak areas (think plastic grocery store bag thin) in base of the pot, as if the molding machine was set to too high of a temperature - which might explain the burnt plastic smell that was more noticeable in the previous bunch. These spots are so thin that I'll have to tape over them because any pressure would just break right through them. The drainage hole punch machine wasn't kind on this batch either, as several drainage holes are only half punched out and I had to use a utility knife to remove them completely. I'm not much for complaining, but these pots were clearly not checked by anyone at Viagrow or Amazon or they never would have been sold. I have to drop my rating of this product from 5 stars to 3 stars due to receiving a bad batch in my second purchase.

I went by the measurements listed in the photos and description, and all the measurements were bigger on the actual pots. So I returned as I'm looking for something slightly smaller.

Thinner than I expected. Shipping took several weeks even though Amazon said I'd have them within a few days. I can get the same price for better quality at my local grow store.

These bad boys are exactly what I was looking for when I'd bought the first sets of 10 of nursery pots. While I was happy with those too, these are larger and even more sturdy than those. I'll be able to reuse these for years!!!!! Thanks guys!!!

Perfect if you start with seed starting trays and need hundreds of pots. I started an acre of planting areas this year using these pots and seed starting trays

decent pots for indoor growing. quite expensive tho
