What materials are in the Eco+Grande?
How does the Eco+Grande Break Down?
The compostable pots break down through a mixture of heat and moisture. Once exposed, the PLA will continue to get smaller and smaller until microbes will consume them and turn them back into organic matter.
Because of this, we recommend planting them as soon possible as the process will immediately start upon exposure to heat. Be sure to water your plant to encourage the composting mechanism and releasing of plant food to encourage more growth.
With a plant container made from plants, earth-friendly gardening just got a whole lot easier. We are thrilled to offer these containers as a great alternative for sustainable gardening and reduce the need for single-use plastics in the gardening industry.
