*Buy singles for 80 cents each*

It seems like such a simple change, but wow, what a difference clear pots make. I love being able to see the moisture level and monitor plant root health without having to disturb my plants to sneak a peek. Clear pots take so much worry and guesswork out of caring for your indoor plants.

 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 and check moisture level.

• 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.

 Support ridges for extra strength 

Although they are hard to see once potted up, look closely and you'll see all the Rain pots have fine support ridges running down the inside of the pots (they are smooth on the outside). These add extra strength and sturdiness, great for plants on root roids that like to get pushy, like ZZ plants. This design allows for strength while still being thin enough to retain high clarity, so you can easily monitor root health. Still thick enough to reuse over and over. Definitely not a single-use throw-away. 

 Drainage for water and air flow 

Great drainage for a little pot, with a ring of 6 drainage slots running around the perimeter of the base for free flow of water to help increase airflow and reduce the risk of fungi and root rot.
