Hydroponic Planter
Unlike traditional pots, hydroponic pots allow roots to develop in direct contact with nutrient solutions, oxygen, and inert media such as expanded clay, rock wool, or perlite.
Explore our selection of hydroponic pots designed for advanced growing systems. Suitable for weed, vegetables, and herbs in controlled environments.
What Are Hydroponic Pots?
Hydroponic pots are containers specifically designed to allow root development in soil-less growing systems, where the roots are suspended or partially submerged in a nutrient solution. Unlike traditional pots, these allow for greater aeration, drainage, and direct access to nutrients.
They are widely used in systems such as DWC (Deep Water Culture), NFT (Nutrient Film Technique), aeroponics, growing in coco or clay pebbles. They are made from durable materials and are compatible with irrigation pumps, air tubes, and nutrient recirculation systems.
Types of Pots for Hydroponic Systems
- Net pots: widely used in DWC or aeroponic systems. They allow for excellent oxygenation and water flow.
- Air pots: promote lateral root growth and prevent root circling.
- Containers for coco or clay pebbles: designed with greater drainage capacity for inert substrates in passive hydroponics.
- Square pots for hydroponics: optimize space and are compatible with grow trays or tables.
- Hydroponic pots for autoflowering: ideal for compact and controlled crops.
Benefits of Using Special Hydroponic Pots
- Better aeration of roots and greater oxygen absorption.
- Prevention of overwatering or root rot.
- Compatibility with nutrient solutions and stable pH.
- Facilitate cleaning, transplanting, and managing the hydroponic system.
- Durable, reusable materials that are resistant to light and water.
These pots for hydroponic systems are designed to maximize the efficiency of soil-less cultivation, providing an ideal environment for demanding plants like weed, tomatoes, lettuce, or basil.
How to Choose the Best Pot for Your Hydroponic System?
The choice of pot will depend on the type of system you use and the crop you want to grow:
- For DWC systems, opt for net pots with baskets of 3-8 inches depending on the size of the plant.
- In grow tables or trays, square pots allow for greater density and order.
- If using clay pebbles or coco, choose containers with many holes or fabric pots with good drainage.
- For autoflowering or short cycles, pots of 5 to 7 liters are usually sufficient.
Remember that success in hydroponics depends on good aeration and water circulation: the right pots make a difference.

Frequently Asked Questions about Hydroponic Pots (FAQ)
- Can I use a traditional pot in hydroponics?
- It is not recommended. Traditional pots retain too much water and do not allow the proper aeration needed for soil-less cultivation.
- What size pot is recommended for weed in DWC?
- For an adult weed plant in DWC, net pots of at least 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) with sufficient reservoir volume are recommended.
- Are hydroponic pots reusable?
- Yes, most are made from durable and washable materials, such as perforated plastic or high-durability geotextile fabric.
- What is the difference between an air pot and a normal pot?
- Air pots have lateral perforations that improve oxygenation and promote lateral root development, preventing spiral roots.
