Grow bags are so convenient, and ideal for people with small yards. They help with the development of healthy root systems; they're good for temperature control; they're light and easy to use; they can handle excess water; and they're easy to store.
The Convenience of Grow Bags
With pots, plant roots can become root-bound; however, with grow bags, when the roots reach the sides of the fabric bag, they sense the drier soil exposed to the air, and they know they’ve reached their growth limit. The roots become “air pruned”, which prevents overgrowth. To grow bags are good for the development of healthy root systems.
Since the bag is made of fabric, it’s breathable, so it’s good for temperature control.
Also, because it's made of fabric, it's lighter than a pot and easier to move around the yard.
If you happen to over-water, the excess water will drain out through the fabric.
They’re very easy to store at the end of the season. You just clean them out and fold them up.

Grow bags come in a variety of sizes, from 2-gallon to 10-gallon bags. There are larger ones, but you probably won't be able to move them once filled with soil and plants. So if you're limited in space, try grow bags.
