Gardeners who use grow bags report a number of benefits over traditional gardening methods. These benefits include easier planting and harvesting, better drainage, less soil compaction, and improved air circulation around the roots. One downside to using grow bags is that they can be difficult to move once they are filled with soil and plants. For this reason, it is important to choose a location for your grow bag before you fill it.
There are a few different options for what you can use to sit your grow bag on. One option is to place it directly on the ground. This is fine if your ground is level and has good drainage. If not, you may want to consider placing your grow bag on top of a raised platform or stand. This will help keep the bottom of the bag dry and improve air circulation around the roots.
Another option is to place your grow bag in a larger container, such as a wheelbarrow or kiddie pool. This will make it easier to move if necessary and will also help with drainage and root aeration. Whatever method you choose, make sure that your grow bag has adequate drainage holes so that excess water can escape and roots don’t become waterlogged.
