Hadopots 4L Polythene Plant Pots (Pack of 50)

I bought these along with the 5L size as I wasnt sure what they would look like. These are an excellent size for my hostas when i have split them. It is better as another reviewer said to roll the tops over to fill with compost. The plastic is very strong so they can be reused and a pack of 50 is not only brilliant value for money, but take up little space. I prefer this size to the 5L which is better for larger plants.

They don't seem any wider than the 2L ones but are taller. Lost a star due to the holes being over big in the bottom. I had to cut pieces of weed suppressant to cover them.

Cheaper than pots when you have a lot to plant. Sturdy enough once full with compost and plant.

Surprisingly strong and a good size for growing on/over wintering plants. Plastic is substantially thicker than the 2L versions. Will likely last a few years. Has large drainage holes in the bottom. For the price, these are very good value. I would recommend. Happy monkey.

Pots are well made from robust black flexible plastic but I thought the drainage holes were too big and allowed compost through.Also I find the sizing challenging, for example I could only get about 1 litre of compost into a 2 litre pot so will need to double up on the sizing next time.

Have ordered several lots of Hado pots in various sizes. Hadopots are very cheap compared to conventional pots, especially the larger sizes and hence useful for potting on large numbers of plants. They are also deeper which gives larger rooted plants a chance to fully develop before being planted out. They are not the easiest to use, being rather narrow at the top compared with a conventional pot and the top "flopps over" when filling. But because of the cheapness worth worth persevering with. The larger sizes are generally too deep and I cut 3" off the height.

Value for money

I love these, easy to customise the height by rolling the top down. I secured this with copper slug tape (from Home Bargains, cheapest supplier)and grew runner beans in them. Great crop and no slug damage can’t ask for more!
