Grow bags are exactly what they sound like, large, fabric-like bags that can be filled with a growing medium and used to grow plants and vegetables. They are typically made of plastic, but they also can be found in several breathable fabrics. They’re flexible, making them easy to use and light enough to transport.
Plants that don’t have deep roots, such as tomatoes, potatoes, salad greens, herbs, peppers, and other similar vegetables, work best in grow bags. The rule of thumb is anything you can plant in a container, you can also plant in a grow bag.
Grow bags are a perfect solution if you don’t have an in-ground garden. They’re fantastic to use on a porch or balcony, but you also can line them up in a raised garden bed for a more traditional look.
There are many reasons to start gardening with growing bags compared to plastic containers, and we’re here to share the pros and cons.
