Selecting The Correct Container For Your Medicinal Plants

When it comes to pots, your medicinal plant wants one thing and one thing only: a safe, healthy place for root development. Without healthy roots, your medicinal plants will never thrive. Roots are in charge of water retention, nutrient absorption, anchoring the plant, and also facilitate vegetative growth. All of these functions must be considered when choosing a container.

For a root system to develop and thrive, they will need the following:

• Drainage: Water retention is paramount for healthy plants—without it, your medicinal plants will wither and die. But too much water will waterlog your plant and lead to root rot, killing roots.
• Oxygen: Plant roots require oxygen to function properly. Choose a container that facilitates enough oxygen for root development without overexposing them to the elements—containers do this though various styles of perforation.
• Nutrients: Roots require optimal conditions for nutrient absorption to occur. This includes pH balance, optimal temperatures, and nutrient availability.
• Space: Roots need plenty of space to branch out. A container that is too small will cause it to become rootbound and choke the plant.

Here are some good grow pot containers:
