The industry leader in Root Control and Air Pruning Pots

At Plantlogic we are constantly challenging ourselves to design and improve our pots to help our customer achieve the best results. Our recent challenge has been improving our first-generation Zephyr pot. We have growers around the world getting great results with this pot, but we believe it can be even better! We considered what our field sales team learned from in-depth conversations with growers to challenge our design and production teams, re-thinking previous design and process limitations. Based on over two years’ design and production preparation work we have rebuilt the Zephyr from the ground up. We’ve placed special focus on providing conditions for uniform substrate humidity, draining without losing substrate, stabilization on soft ground and clean separation from the ground. The result — our completely new Zephyr V2!

Knowing the importance of healthy roots, the Zephyr V2 keeps the original Zephyr’s strongest features like our pyramid shape base, and isolating substrate from the ground, but does it even better. With the Zephyr V2 we have increased the distance and airflow between the substrate to the ground, reduced the holes where substrate could fill leg holes and guide roots to the ground, increased stability to keep pots from sinking, increased the connection between the walls base to improve handling and other issues common with traditional “root control” pots.

 

 

What’s special about the Zephyr V2?

  • Highest legs in the pot industry at 7 cm preventing root contact with soil and pathogens, improving growers’ ability to steer the plants. Closed air spaces under pots just fill with roots and mold.
  • True separation between substrate and the ground – not the typical cups-for-legs that put the substrate in direct contact with the ground.
  • Extra-strong connection between wall and base, giving more stability to the pot when handling.
  • Tall, yet stable base design prevents sinking into soft ground, by providing a large load-bearing surface area – 5x larger than any other pot with legs.
  • Strong and stable pyramid, not a soft mesh, that maintains a consistent shape carefully guiding drainage where it should flow.
  • The only pot in the market with a base that is wider than the pot.
  • Increased airflow on side walls prevents root spiraling and improves root architecture.
  • Side wall has no holes in upper section, and gradually more holes on lower area which helps make humidity even from the top to the bottom of the pot.
  • Side wall shaped designed to prevent substrate from compacting, and slow down water fertigation flow on outside surfaces.
  • Drainage holes that do not allow substrate to fall through, but instead a narrow, carefully controlled drainage area around outside edges. Keeps even aggressive roots from growing down.
  • Drainage at the outermost edges into sunlit areas resulting in natural root pruning.
  • Made from clean and durable PE.
  • Multi-year using our best UV stabilization formula.

 

 

We offer the Zephyr V2 in volumes of 25, 30 and 40 liters, in white or black. Larger models available upon request.

 

 

As the competition in the global berry market continues to increase, challenging growers reduce planting to harvest time, increase yields and extend productive years of plants, Plantlogic is committed to continuous innovation and improvement of our growing systems. We’re proud to share this newest innovation with you.
