Unit price perEstimated delivery between November 01 and November 03.
The 1L Round Plant Pot is a compact black horticultural grow pot designed for propagation, potting-on, nursery production and general plant cultivation. Measuring approximately 13cm across the upper rim, 9.5cm across the base and 11.5cm high, it provides a practical 1 litre root volume for young plants that have outgrown plugs, cells and smaller propagation pots.
One litre pots are widely used by professional growers as an early growing-on container. They provide developing root systems with additional substrate volume while maintaining a compact footprint that allows large numbers of plants to be accommodated efficiently on nursery and greenhouse benches.
The traditional tapered round design makes plants straightforward to handle and allows empty pots to nest together for efficient storage. A pronounced upper rim adds rigidity and provides a convenient point for lifting and moving the container.
Drainage openings in the base allow excess irrigation water to escape, helping maintain the balance of moisture and oxygen required around developing roots.
Suitable for peat-based and peat-free compost, soil, coco coir and other horticultural growing media, the 1L Round Pot is useful for commercial nurseries, propagation facilities, greenhouse production and home growing.

Ideal for growing-on young plants
The 1L pot occupies an important position between propagation containers and larger nursery pots.
Once seedlings, cuttings and young plants have developed a healthy root system in their initial propagation container, moving into approximately one litre of fresh growing medium provides additional room for continued root and shoot development.
Progressive potting can also make irrigation easier to manage. Placing a very small root system directly into a much larger container can leave a significant volume of unrooted substrate wet for longer periods.
For many compact plants, herbs and nursery crops, 1L may also be a useful finishing or retail size. More vigorous plants can subsequently be moved into 2L, 3L or larger containers as required.
1L Round Pot dimensions
The pot measures approximately 13cm across the upper rim, 9.5cm across the base and 11.5cm high.
These compact dimensions provide useful growing-medium volume while allowing growers to maintain efficient plant density across benches, beds and propagation areas.
The tapered sides allow empty pots to nest inside one another, reducing storage and transport space between production runs.
What can you grow in a 1L pot?
One litre pots are suitable for establishing and growing-on a broad range of young horticultural crops, including:
- Young herbaceous perennials
- Herbs
- Bedding and patio plants
- Young shrubs
- Young climbing plants
- Strawberries
- Young chillies and peppers
- Vegetable transplants
- Ornamental plants
- Rooted cuttings
- General nursery stock
Whether a 1L pot can be used as the final container depends on the plant species and intended finished size. Larger and more vigorous plants will normally require additional root volume as they develop.
Suitable growing media
The 1L Round Plant Pot can be used with a wide range of horticultural substrates, including:
- Peat-based nursery compost
- Peat-free growing media
- Soil-based potting mixes
- Coco coir
- Coco and perlite blends
- Compost-based mixes
- Other suitable horticultural substrates
Select a growing medium appropriate for the crop and stage of development. Young plants generally benefit from a substrate that combines reliable moisture retention with sufficient air-filled porosity for healthy root growth.
Drainage & irrigation
Pre-formed drainage openings in the base allow excess irrigation water to leave the pot rather than accumulating around the lower root zone.
This is particularly important in small containers because the entire substrate volume can become wet quickly. Healthy root development depends on maintaining both adequate moisture and oxygen within the growing medium.
The pot can be used with hand watering, overhead nursery irrigation, drip irrigation and other suitable watering systems.
Irrigation frequency should be based on the crop, root development, substrate and environmental conditions rather than following a fixed schedule.
Fits the 14cm Pot Saucer
The 1L Round Plant Pot is compatible with the 14cm Pot Saucer, product code P00047.
The matching saucer measures approximately 17cm across the rim, 14cm across the base and 2cm high.
This provides a useful option when the pot is used indoors or on protected surfaces where irrigation runoff needs to be contained.
The same 14cm saucer can also accommodate compatible pots with a slightly larger upper diameter because saucer compatibility is primarily determined by the footprint at the base of the pot.
Made for efficient nursery production
The compact 1L format is particularly useful for commercial growers because large numbers of young plants can be maintained within a relatively small production area.
Plants remain lightweight and straightforward to move, grade, space and irrigate while still having considerably more growing-medium volume than they would in a propagation cell or small starter pot.
The simple black horticultural finish also provides a clean presentation when plants are supplied directly to retailers, landscapers or end users.
When should you pot on from a 1L pot?
Plants should be moved into a larger container according to root development and crop requirements rather than after a fixed number of weeks.
A well-established root system throughout the existing growing medium, increasingly rapid drying or vigorous top growth relative to the pot can all indicate that additional root volume may be beneficial.
Where the 1L container is being used as an intermediate stage, moving into an appropriately sized 2L, 3L or larger pot allows the root system to continue developing while maintaining manageable moisture conditions.
Practical & reusable
Pots that remain in good condition can be emptied, cleaned and reused for subsequent crops.
Remove old substrate and root debris before cleaning. Where pots are being reused between crops, appropriate hygiene procedures can help reduce the risk of transferring pests or plant pathogens.
The tapered design allows empty pots to nest together for compact storage.

1L Round Plant Pot FAQs
What can I grow in a 1L plant pot?
One litre pots are suitable for young perennials, herbs, bedding plants, rooted cuttings, strawberries, young vegetables, ornamentals and many other nursery crops.
Is a 1L pot suitable for growing-on seedlings and cuttings?
Yes. Once seedlings or rooted cuttings have established sufficiently in their propagation container, a 1L pot can provide a useful next stage with additional room for root development.
Can I grow herbs in a 1L pot?
Yes. Many herbs can be grown or supplied in 1L pots. Vigorous or long-term plants may eventually benefit from a larger container.
Can I grow chillies in a 1L pot?
A 1L pot is useful for establishing young chilli and pepper plants. Most vigorous plants will normally benefit from potting-on into a larger final container as they develop.
Can I use coco coir in the 1L Round Pot?
Yes. Coco coir and coco-based mixes can be used in the pot. Irrigation should be adjusted to the crop and the drainage characteristics of the substrate.
Can I use peat-free compost?
Yes. The 1L pot is suitable for peat-free growing media as well as conventional compost, soil-based mixes, coco and other suitable horticultural substrates.
Does the 1L Round Pot have drainage holes?
Yes. Pre-formed drainage openings in the base allow excess irrigation water to leave the growing medium.
Which saucer fits the 1L Round Pot?
The compatible option is the 14cm Pot Saucer, product code P00047. The saucer measures approximately 17cm across the rim, 14cm across the base and 2cm high.
Why does a 13cm pot fit a 14cm saucer?
Saucer compatibility is determined primarily by the footprint of the pot rather than its widest upper rim. The 1L pot has an approximately 9.5cm base, allowing it to sit comfortably within the 14cm saucer.
Is the 1L pot suitable for professional nursery production?
Yes. The compact size is useful for growing-on young nursery plants while maintaining efficient plant density across production areas.
