As the sky clears up and spring arrives, you might want to get started with a garden of your own.
However exciting the idea sounds, most of us back out because of a lack of space or knowledge about growing veggies and flowers. We are here to help you make use of whatever space that you can spare.
Grow bags ensure that the roots grow well within the bags and will not spread out further. Hence you can plant a number of items in a limited space.
While many people would choose traditional pots or plastic ones, we do not need to tell you that plastic is not environmentally friendly. On the other hand, these are made of BPA-free material that will not harm the environment. Needless to say, the plastic ones fail this test.
Moving on, to help you choose the best, we have curated this list of the top 13 grow bags of 2020. You can read all about it in the sections below.
So let’s get started.

Why Did We Like It?
To begin with, this bag is made of thick nonwoven fabric, which allows it to stand upright without any support. It is made of 300g nonwoven fabric, which holds the soil well and will not let it escape.
Also, we loved the water drainage capacity that this product has. Do not be worried about excess water as it will drain out from the bottom, since this fabric has a lot of space for drainage and air circulation.
Good air circulation is key for roots to grow well. You will have to trim them occasionally so that they do not try to penetrate the bag, but that is not a difficult job at all. It will keep the soil oxygenated and will not provide for excess water.
Thirdly, the automatic air prune feature works very well as it does not allow the roots to get tangled. This, in turn, allows for more breathing space, and the plants can also absorb minerals from it.
What Could’ve Been Better?
The only issue we found with this product is with the stitching of its handles. They could have been stitched better, and we found just a single thread connecting the body with the handle. Now, the best thing to do is to get it stitched again to make it firmer; you should not face any further problems then.
- Made from lightweight material
- Durable, sturdy manufacturing
- Allows roots to breathe
- BPA free and environmentally friendly
- Handles are not well-stitched

If you live in an area with a very dry climate, then this bag might not work well. It keeps drying very fast, and the soil dries up with it.

Coming to the material, this bag is made with nonwoven fabric, which is BPA free and environmentally friendly. This will not cause any issues with the planet and is a better alternative to plastic pots.

This item is well-known for its thick, heavy, and nonwoven fabric. It has handles which are very strong and can take a lot of weight. The load-bearing capacity was really impressive when we needed to move the heavy bags from one side of our house to another.
Also, the product is recyclable. You can use it for as many years as possible and then send it for recycling. Not only that, we could clean it easily, and it takes very less time to dry.
Further, the roots grow well in the bags, and this increases their survival chance. We have been using it for growing fruits and vegetables which are going to be sold. They survive well and hence ensure a better income.
This is because of the great moisturizing system that the plant roots get. The water required for growth is not allowed to evaporate and hence provides for enhanced growth of the plants.

While the description of online shopping sites do not mention that it is for indoor use, the pack mentions it.

Like its peers, this product is also made out of nonwoven fabric, which lets the roots breathe easily. The roots receive the right amount of air and grow to be healthier and self-sufficient. The bags reduce transfer shock that could otherwise lead to stunted root growth. They help in allowing the roots to spread well without getting tangled.
Next, this item works perfectly in allowing water to drain easily. It allows the soil to drain excess water that would otherwise lead to the decaying of roots. The water can easily flow out while the soil particles will be trapped inside. This will prevent the floor surface from getting dirty.
Moreover, it comes with built-in sturdy handles that will enable you to carry the bag; however you want. They are strong and will ensure that the bags can be kept indoors and outdoors. The thick material will keep the roots warm even if you are placing it outside.
