Below are comparison photos of my existing and newest pots.
From left to right they are the standard 11x11x12cm square black plastic pot with a capacity of approx 1 litre.
Centre - the pots I refer to as my super long toms 10x10x17cm capacity 1.4 litres
Right - are some I have just acquired which are 11x11x20.5cm with a capacity of 2 litres. Now that to me is a Super-duper long tom.
These are produced for hydro-culture so they have the mesh base. They will all need a square of horticultural fleece in the bottom to retain the medium but I have plenty of that so no problem. These are very sturdy pots and should last for donkey's years.
My intention is to re-pot my little band of Fly Traps into the super duper long toms. The Dionaea will be able to sit in a fairly deep water level and still have quite a depth of medium above the water mark. We'll then gauge how they perform.
