What was I thinking? Now I've gone clear, I have no idea why I bought solid-coloured pots all this time. I love being able to see the moisture level and monitor plant root health without having to disturb my plants to sneak a peek.
Size
This is the Rain 8 measuring 8.5cms wide x 8cm tall with the bottom width 6.5cms wide and the top width inside edge to edge 7.5cms wide. A perfect size for babies to small plants.
(note volume below is based on filling to the top, no allowance for dropping soil level at the top for ease of watering and no allowance for the space the plant's roots will take up)

What are Rain clear pots made of?
Rain pots are recyclable (recycle code 5), made of the same type of thermoplastic used for food, for everything from kids lunchboxes to medicine bottles. I prefer this type of plastic for plants because it has:
- High chemical resistance to reduce leaching, making them a better choice when using fertiliser so nutrients stay available to roots and don't build-up over time.
- High heat resistance, handy for sun lovers indoors, and for cleaning with hot enough water to kill any baddies if you ever get pests. Also top rack safe in the dishwasher.
- Great clarity for use when you want to see what's inside, ideal to keep an eye on root health.
- Low moisture loss making it easier to predict when your plants need watering again, and a great option for heated, dry-air conditions like a typical kiwi winter.
- BPA free for peace of mind.
Raised drainage for water and air flow
This pot has great drainage with both flat and raised drainage for free flow of water with increased airflow, helping reduce the risk of fungi and root rot.
