Fantastic pots for taproots
I sprouted some seeds for a native shrub that has an extremely long taproot. These are great for giving that taproot room to develop and stretch out without having to use a ton of soil. They're sturdy and stand up on their own on a windowsill.Regarding the large hole at the bottom, I just used a paper towel at the bottom when I was initially filling the pots to prevent soil from falling through. I feel it's going to be handy later for getting the seedling loose before planting. I also nested the tall pots into some more conventional pots I had laying around as an extra cover for the hole.

Almost perfect
The drainage hole in the bottom was large so I had to block it so the soil didn't pour out, otherwise, it suits my needs. Good quality material, also.

Perfect size!
The media could not be loaded. The size is ideal for starting deep-rooting, or taprooting, plants. The housing of the tape measure in the picture is 2"; so, the pots are 8 3/16" tall. The construction is quite sturdy, and they will, certainly, be re-usable. As for stability, I found them to be sufficiently stable. However (as the video shows), I did place them into 4" plastic-saucers in order to augment their stability.I plan to use these for seeding pepper-plants, as I've found that pepper-plants purchased from big-box retailers might have suffered (production-diminishing) taproot-damage from transplanting.

Not very sturdy
These are less sturdy than I expected for the price, and I won't be buying them again. They aren't paper thin like the very inexpensive ones, and can stand up on their own, but they are not nearly as thick and sturdy as similarly shaped pots I get when I buy plants from the native restoration specialist for about four dollars.

Just what I needed
Oak and plum babies are happy!

Definitely not thin, grab some mesh for the bottom hole
Depending on what medium you use, you might want to grab some drainage mesh for the bottom hole. cubes of 1.5" x 1.5" are probably enough to cover it. Potting soil or dirt may not need it if going in wet, but the rock bonsai medium I'm using wouldn't hold. These treepots will hold up for awhile, definitely not the thin temporary and easy to tear type.Happy growing!

Huge drainage hole in bottom
Why would they make the hole at the bottom almost as large as the top opening? Makes no sense. As soon as you put the dirt in it falls through the bottom. These are terrible. I’m trying to add a photo but can’t seem top do that. If you buy these, plan to add something to the bottom to cover the hole. I’m going to return them.

Used to start fig tree cuttings
Product is flimsy, as others have said. Since there are 10 to a pack, I placed five of these with cuttings inside of one big box store 5-gal pail. Used 2 pails for the 10 above pots. Worked great. 100% success starting fig tree cuttings! Will transfer to larger pots in time.
