Strong, crystal clear and extendable, this is the original height in the Thiccly GrowPoles, but in the new 2.0 Pro model in clear. Measures 40cms tall x 6.5cms wide, for all your small to medium indoor plants that love to climb. Easy to extend later to keep growing up, and extra-stable even in smaller pots thanks to the new soil anchors (which also double as pole locks for securely extending later). 

What's new in the 2.0 Pro?

• Now with thicker plastic. Still light enough for small pots, yet surprisingly rigid and strong, the new 2.0 Pro uses thicker, 0.4mm recyclable PET plastic for reusable, stronger support even when extended. Measures 40cm tall x 6.5cms wide assembled.

• Redesigned root holes. Longer, larger, rectangular root holes make it easier to remove roots later if you want to upgrade your pole rather than extend. 

• New soil anchors. No more leaning, tipping grow poles. The pop-out soil anchors keep your GrowPole firmly in place.

• Extendable + new pole locks. The soil anchors (at the bottom) and pole clips (at the top) lock together when extending your GrowPole, creating the strongest plastic poles on the market.

• Crystal clear. There's a reason the close-up photos are on a black background! So clear they're almost invisible. Fill up with your chosen substrate only as high as your plant requires and the focus stays entirely on the foliage. not the pole (note some photos show the pole in frosted plastic, however the 2.0 Pro are clear). 

How to assemble your GrowPole 2.0 Pro

1. Front: Bend along the fold lines, either side of the front mesh panel.

1a. Substrate: Add your chosen substrate and finish assembly around the substrate, or skip this step and add the substrate last if you prefer*

2. Back: Bend the arrows, slotting them in to the back, one-by-one.

My assembly tip is to gently bend the arrows to slot them in one-by-one, not to bend the pole itself (which is more rigid than the arrows). The arrows will 'click' into place when the tabs go in (it's very satisfying once you have them all lined up!).

3. *Substrate: If you prefer, add your chosen substrate after assembly.

You can fill your pole to the top right away, or only to the height your plant needs and top it later as the plant grows. For fast growers I like to fill to the top, which also means new stem and leaf growth doesn't end up growing inside the empty pole.

How to add your GrowPole to your pot:

1. Add the soil in the bottom of the pot first, up to the level you want the pole to go down into the pot.

2. Pop out the two soil anchor tabs at the bottom of the pole and bend them so they stick out on a 90 degree angle.

3. Put your GrowPole into the pot, deep enough so the soil anchors will end up being below the top level of the soil once the pot is filled.

4. Fill the rest of the pot with soil, covering the bottom of the pole and the soil anchors.

How to extend your GrowPole:

1. Assemble your new top pole empty (you'll add the substrate at the end) and turn your top pole so the soil anchor tabs are at the bottom (the same as you would when adding it to a pot).

3. If your bottom pole is full to the top with substrate, remove a little of the substrate at the top of the bottom pole.

4. Pull the mesh at the top of bottom pole outwards slightly (so it's a convex shape, bowing outwards slightly, not concave).

5. Bend the mesh at the bottom of the new top pole, inwards slightly (so it's concave).

6. Slot the new top pole inside the bottom pole, until the soil anchor tabs and pole tabs line up. 

7. Going through the front mesh, push the pole anchors outwards (use a pen if your fingers don't fit), so the tabs lock in place under the soil anchors (it sounds tricky but will be obvious when you're doing it).

8. Job done! Fill your top pole with your chosen substrate and keep growing!

What substrates can you use?

The limit is pretty much your imagination. I mainly use besgrow spagmoss or egmont magic moss in my poles, but I have some with fern fibre and some with chunky aroid mix. I've seen leca  used also but haven't tried that myself yet.

What are Thiccly GrowPoles made from?

Thiccly GrowPoles are made of 100% PET plastic that's been tested for 219 toxic substances and passed both the European REACH and RoHS standards. Certified free of cadmium, lead and mercury under the American Society for Testing and Materials standards.

The mesh-front root cut-outs are removed for recycling at the factory - not sent to your place, reducing the risk of small plastics ending up in landfill or our oceans - then flatpacked with no fillers or fancy packaging, lowering the carbon footprint when being transported.

Once the substrate has been removed, GrowPoles can be recycled in NZ (recycle grade 1), the same type of plastic food and drink containers are made of and rated easy to recycle.
