Better Than Rocks

A great idea for the bottom of planters. Not only helps conserve water, but keeps the weight of the planters down.

This is better than rocks because it doesn't add weight to the already heavy planter. I'm waiting to see whether I can re-use it in the same planters next year...

This is wonderful stuff, to help lighten pots....particularly large ones. Stuffing "Better Than Rocks" into the bottom of huge garden pots reduces the weight considerably. This comes two ways: a large roll and pre-cut pieces. While the pre-cut are handier, the large roll is MUCH cheaper, albeit a little difficult to cut. BUT you can cut it to the pot's specific diameter. I highly recommend...particularly if you have difficulty hauling around heavy pots.

All my planters are flourishing

Though expensive

I purchased two of these to use in two large 2 feet wide planter pots. I wish I purchased more-- the roll may have been better for my needs. Since I just put them in the pot with soil covering them just last week, I can't really give an assessment of whether or not they work well-- but it was easier and a lot lighter than using gravel/rocks.

No more smashing up old pots or hunting in the garden for rocks for drainage. This drainage material really works! It's neat and handy. Just keep some around, and you're always ready to re-pot. I'm very glad I decided to try it.

This product is so easy to use & saves time by not having to scoop lots of soil into pots, & the best feature is that it is so lightweight & I don't need to lug such heavy flowerpots. Also doesn't interfere with root growth & allows for ventilation.

I haven't used this yet, but am thinking it will be nice. I have trouble with my back and always need to have someone help me in the fall when it is time to put things away for the winter. Now I should be able to do this on my own.

A bit expensive but I'm hoping to reuse them next year. Bought several. They are so much better than rocks: they are very light, can be cut to fit pot and hold water.
