Landmark Plastic Sheet of 18 Round Pots - X-3.5SPD - 3.49in x 3.46in x 3.23in - Gray

Air-Pruning X-3.5SPD Sheet of 18 Round Pots for Root-Ready Transplants

The Landmark Plastic X-3.5SPD Sheet of Pots provides 18 connected round pots in a single sheet format, gray polystyrene. Each X-3.5SPD pot measures 3.49in W x 3.46in L x 3.23in D. The bi-level drainage system and air-pruning base on the X-3.5SPD encourage vigorous root development and reduce root circling, producing transplant-ready plants with well-branched, fibrous root systems.

Key Features & Benefits

• 18 Round Pots Per Sheet: The X-3.5SPD connected sheet format supports efficient filling, handling, and production line use.
• Bi-Level Drainage: Two-tier drainage on the X-3.5SPD removes excess water efficiently while retaining adequate moisture for the root zone.
• Air-Pruning Base: Open base design on the X-3.5SPD exposes root tips to air, naturally pruning them and stimulating lateral branching for a dense root ball.
• Pot Dimensions: 3.49in W x 3.46in L x 3.23in D: Generous volume supports robust root development on the X-3.5SPD before transplanting.
• Gray Polystyrene Construction: Durable, lightweight, and reusable across multiple production cycles for the X-3.5SPD sheet.

Who Should Use This

Propagators and nursery growers running the X-3.5SPD want transplant-ready plants with strong, branched root systems. This sheet suits vegetable starts and ornamentals sized for a deeper 3.23in pot profile.

Compatibility

The X-3.5SPD works with compatible tray carriers or bench systems, peat, coco coir, bark-based, and soilless growing media. Compatible with overhead and flood-floor irrigation systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is air pruning and why does it improve X-3.5SPD plant quality?

Air pruning occurs when X-3.5SPD root tips reach the open base of the pot and are naturally desiccated by air exposure. This stops downward root growth on the X-3.5SPD and triggers lateral branching, producing a denser, more fibrous root ball that establishes faster after transplanting.

What are the pot dimensions on the X-3.5SPD sheet?

Each pot in the X-3.5SPD sheet measures 3.49in W x 3.46in L x 3.23in D. That volume is sized specifically for round X-3.5SPD pot production at this 18-cell count.

How does bi-level drainage work on the X-3.5SPD?

The X-3.5SPD's bi-level drainage system uses openings at two distinct levels in the pot wall, ensuring excess water drains freely while retaining adequate moisture for healthy root development. That two-tier design on the X-3.5SPD keeps the deeper 3.23in pot from staying waterlogged between waterings.

Is the X-3.5SPD sheet reusable?

Yes -- the durable gray polystyrene construction of the X-3.5SPD is designed for multiple production cycles with proper cleaning between uses. Inspect the X-3.5SPD sheet for cracked pots before returning it to service.
