Unit price perEstimated delivery between November 01 and November 03.
The 2L Square Round Plant Pot is a compact black horticultural grow pot designed for potting-on young plants, nursery production and efficient greenhouse growing. Measuring approximately 13.5cm across the upper rim, 11cm across the base and 14.5cm high, it combines the space-saving advantages of a square pot with a tapered lower profile.
A 2 litre container provides a useful step between small propagation pots and larger nursery or finishing containers. It gives developing roots additional growing-medium volume while keeping plants compact, lightweight and easy to handle.
The square upper profile allows neighbouring pots to sit closely together, helping maximise available bench, greenhouse and nursery space. This makes the format particularly useful where larger numbers of young plants are being grown simultaneously.
The tapered lower section creates a practical root zone, assists removal of established root balls during potting-on and allows empty pots to nest together for efficient storage.
Suitable for peat-based and peat-free compost, soil, coco coir and other horticultural growing media, this versatile 2L pot can be used for a wide range of edible, ornamental and nursery crops.
Why choose the 2L Square Round Plant Pot?
- 2 litre capacity - ideal for growing-on established seedlings, rooted cuttings and young plants.
- Square round design - combines efficient spacing with a practical tapered root zone.
- 13.5cm upper rim - compact footprint for nursery and greenhouse production.
- 14.5cm height - provides useful depth for continued root development.
- 11cm base - tapered lower profile for straightforward handling and potting-on.
- Space-efficient format - reduces wasted space between neighbouring containers.
- Excellent potting-on size - a practical progression from smaller propagation pots.
- Professional nursery pot - suitable for growing, handling and retail presentation.
- Suitable for peat-free media - compatible with modern peat-free growing substrates.
- Suitable for coco - works with coco coir and coco-based growing media.
- Indoor & outdoor use - suitable for nurseries, greenhouses, polytunnels and gardens.
- Reusable - sound pots can be cleaned and used for subsequent crops.
- Compatible saucer available - fits the 14cm saucer, product code P00047.
Space-efficient square round design
Square round pots combine features of both square and conventional round horticultural containers.
The predominantly square upper profile allows pots to be positioned efficiently alongside one another. Compared with rows of conventional round pots, this can reduce the unused space between containers and help growers make better use of nursery and greenhouse benches.
The lower section tapers towards the base, creating a practical growing profile while allowing empty containers to nest together for compact storage.
This combination makes the format particularly useful for professional growing-on applications where plant density, handling and storage efficiency are important.
A practical 2 litre growing-on pot
Two litres provides a useful intermediate root volume for plants that have outgrown smaller propagation or nursery pots.
Potting-on into a 2L container gives developing roots access to additional growing medium without immediately placing a young plant into an unnecessarily large volume of substrate.
This makes the size particularly useful for progressive potting, where plants are moved through increasingly larger containers as their root systems develop.
For compact plants and shorter production cycles, a 2L container may also be suitable as a final growing or retail pot.
What can you grow in a 2L pot?
The 2L Square Round Plant Pot is suitable for growing-on a broad range of plants, including:
- Established seedlings
- Rooted cuttings
- Herbs
- Young chilli and pepper plants
- Young tomato plants
- Strawberry plants
- Herbaceous perennials
- Bedding and patio plants
- Young shrubs
- Ornamental plants
- General nursery stock
Whether 2L is suitable as the final container depends on the crop, mature plant size and growing period. Vigorous plants will generally require additional root volume as they develop.
Ideal for progressive potting-on
Progressive potting allows the container volume to increase alongside development of the root system.
A 2L pot is particularly useful after smaller propagation and growing-on containers. Once roots have established throughout the existing medium, moving into 2 litres provides fresh substrate and additional space for continued growth.
Avoid potting very small plants into excessively large containers unnecessarily. A large volume of wet, unrooted growing medium can take longer to dry and may make irrigation more difficult to manage.
Suitable growing media
The 2L Square Round Plant Pot can be used with a wide variety of horticultural growing media, including:
- Peat-based nursery compost
- Peat-free growing media
- Soil-based potting mixes
- Compost-based mixes
- Coco coir
- Coco and perlite blends
- Other suitable horticultural substrates
Choose a substrate appropriate for the crop and growing method. Moisture retention, drainage and irrigation frequency can vary considerably between different growing media.
Watering plants in 2L pots
Smaller containers respond relatively quickly to changes in temperature, light levels and plant water demand, so substrate moisture should be checked regularly.
Immediately after potting-on, roots may occupy only part of the fresh growing medium. Water according to the needs of the developing root system rather than automatically saturating the entire pot on a fixed schedule.
As the plant becomes established, increased root mass and foliage will normally increase water demand.
The pot can be used with hand watering and compatible nursery, greenhouse and drip irrigation systems.
Fits the 14cm Pot Saucer
The 2L Square Round Plant Pot is listed for use with the 14cm saucer, product code P00047.
The compatible saucer measures approximately 17cm across the rim, 14cm across the base and 2cm high.
A saucer can help collect irrigation runoff when plants are grown indoors, on greenhouse benches or on surfaces that need protection from excess water.
Avoid leaving the pot permanently standing in stagnant runoff unless this forms part of the intended irrigation method.
Ideal for nursery & greenhouse production
The compact 2L format provides professional growers with a useful balance between root volume and production footprint.
Its square upper profile allows plants to be arranged efficiently while young. As the canopy develops, containers can be spaced further apart where required to improve airflow and light distribution.
The manageable size also makes plants straightforward to move, grade, irrigate and prepare for sale or further potting-on.
Practical & reusable
Pots that remain in good condition can be emptied, cleaned and reused for subsequent crops.
Remove old roots and growing-medium residue before cleaning. Appropriate hygiene between crops can help reduce the risk of transferring pests or plant pathogens.
The tapered profile allows empty pots to nest together, reducing the storage space required between growing cycles.
