Active Aqua 9" x 9" Square Black Pot, 10" Tall (Case of 24)

A Heavy Duty Square Container for Hydroponic and Container Growing, 9" x 9" Black

Square pots make more efficient use of shelf and tray space than round containers of the same volume, which matters when a grow room or greenhouse bench is already tight on room. This Active Aqua 9" x 9" square pot is molded from heavy duty plastic and stands 10" tall tall, with a raised bottom and multiple drainage holes and slits built into the base and lower sidewalls so excess water and nutrient solution drain freely instead of pooling around the root zone.

This black 9" x 9" pot holds about 2.5 gallons of growing media, and ships in a case of 24 for growers stocking multiple trays or benches at once. Its heavy duty black plastic construction stands up to repeated handling in the grow room.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this pot?

This listing is for the 9" x 9" Active Aqua square pot, which stands 10" tall tall. It holds about 2.5 gallons of growing media.

Why choose the black finish over white?

The black finish is the standard heavy duty option and blocks light from reaching the root zone and growing media inside the 9" x 9" pot, which helps discourage algae growth in exposed media. Choose it when light exposure to the container itself is not a concern in your setup.

How many pots come in this listing?

This listing is sold case of 24, so growers outfitting a full bench or hydroponic tray can buy in bulk rather than one pot at a time. Buying by the case keeps the per-pot cost down for growers running multiple trays or benches.

Does this pot have drainage built in?

Yes. A raised bottom keeps the pot off standing water, and multiple drainage holes and slits around the base let excess water and nutrient solution run off freely.

What growing media works with this pot?

The pot is sized to hold clay pebbles, rockwool, coco coir, or a standard soil or soilless mix, so it fits both hydroponic and container growing setups. Its raised bottom and drainage slits work with any of these media without modification.

How should I clean this pot between uses?

Rinse the pot with water to remove loose growing media, then wash it with a mild detergent solution. Rinse again before reusing it for a new planting, since the heavy duty plastic is built to withstand repeated cleaning cycles.
