- Today am really excited to share some knowledge with an experiment and hack to grow plants faster than usual. You can try and implement on your plants to make them grow faster, healthier, stronger and better yielding. And am sure you will be really shocked to see the results of this gardening hack at the end of the video. You can grow a large fruit tree in a smaller container using this method. I will also show you which containers to choose for this method and also How you can make your own DIY pots and planters at home for this purpose. And All my videos are based on scientific research and are proven methods in gardening. All that’s coming up.
Well, We will start with the Term AIR PRUNING. You might have heard about Air Layering, Water Layering and Root Pruning. But what is Air Pruning. This is a pretty simple concept. I will try to make it more simplified in this video but very quickly without boring you and I shall explain the scientific details. Please watch the entire video and we will leave the complicated microscopic level explanation to the scientists and the PHDs.
So, the Air pruning benefits - It not only provides an enormous surface area to absorb those soil nutrients, but Drainage will also improve, increasing the amount of oxygen in the root zone and reducing the pooling of water, which in turn reduces the risk of root rot. You will notice faster growth of plants, healthier plants, and significantly increased yields.
So, Now How do I implement this in my Containers at Home gardening or Container gardening Level?
Best is to start air pruning early. When a cutting or seedling has rooted, you can transplant it into a air pruning pots.
So, Now we will look into different ways to design your own DIY air pruning pots and planters.
Watch video.
Actually this was my first experience with air pruning and at present I Personally feel we should use air pruning on every plant we grow in containers. Try it yourself; you won’t be disappointed. Will keep adding more plants to this technique and will share the results with you in my coming videos including the DIY Jeans air pruning pot we made. So that you don’t have to spend money on those costly hitec air pruning pots available in market.
If there are so many Pros on air pruning, there should be some disadvantages too.
The only disadvantage I see is the Plants dry out quicker than conventional pots, so frequent watering or drip irrigation is recommended.
So, there you have it folks, That was something new to learn in gardening - that’s about Air pruning and Gardening Hacks on Air pruning.

GARDEN TIPS this video still does not explain why when using the jeans and drilling the holes the root should prune itself.
Omar Baassiri Idea of using jeans or any thick fabric is to allow air entry but not water draining quickly during watering. Air enters through holes and through Jean's and hits the growing roots.
I wasted 7 1/2 minutes. I still don't know what air pruning is. I do; however, know how to make an ugly pot that drains well.
hell I really enjoyed your video i love gardening found this info useful thanks
Won't this method dry out the soil too quickly? I'm guessing you would have to choose plants that tolerate drought quite well. I live in Argentina and summer is arriving. I did have an ecomesh bag with an ice plant and it did very well, but I can't imagine it being very good for say a petunia. What do you think?
Thank you very much for keeping this in English and not misleading with just an English video title.
It works extremely well,the only disadvantages are using these pots in winter as cold temperatures will kill the plant, but there are many methods to help in cold temperatures, put the airpot in a plastic bag and put dry grass or leafs that protect the wall,if you want put some dry leafs on top of the soil aswell to prevent frost bite. This method will also help keep the soil medium from drying out to fast.
I look up to you and I have been more successful with my plants because of everything you taught me on your channel and I have never known that I didn't have to try so hard on plants and instead they don't require as much care as I was putting into them thank you!
What a great video. I’ve been growing plants since the 70s in the last 10 years thinking of ways to get more air to the root system and healthier roots. It’s horrible with solid plastic pots smelling the rot in the bottom because of no air circulation.
I have never heard of this before! I am keen to try it as soon as the sun comes up tomorrow : ) Thank you for sharing. Regards from Brisbane (Australia)
He is correct! I used a one inch hole saw attachment on my drill and put 5 or 6 holes around the pot. I then hot glued plastic netting to cover those holes. Filled the pots with soil and put Pothos in the that’s growing fast, strong and tall. He is so right about this. I am getting a smaller hole saw for my 3-4 inch pots.
About five years ago I bought a lot of air pruning pots from both companies, Air Pots and Root Trainers. I am a farmer living in the desert and they did not work for me, the pots kept drying out. Several years ago I switched over to the Kratky method and utilized the air pots which didn't work. I put the Air Pots and Root Trainers in a 10" net basket, which goes inside a 5 gallon bucket. I keep the water level up to the bottom 2-3 inches of the air pot. I water from the top, so it serves a dual purpose. To wick the media must be damp. It has worked really well. This year we put all our 5 gallon buckets (veggies,etc) and 55 gallon barrels (for trees) sunk in the ground up to the rims. Running air stones in them. The water stays quite cool - a real success here in the desert. We do however, grow everything under 80% aluminet shade cloth.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
+Elementaldomain Thanks, it's like you were reading my mind. I watched the video and thought to myself, that will never work where I live as it's just too hot and dry. I have found that many of my plants just get too hot when they are not in the ground, being in any kind of pot seems to be very hard on the roots when the temp goes over 40 degrees C almost every day of the summer; plus the fact that they would dry so quickly in an air pot. Your suggestion sounds like a very good one, although kind of a lot to go through. I keep playing with the seasons, trying to get things to grow by planting them in the fall once it cools down a bit, but this has very mixed results. Mostly the plants just barely hang on until early spring, meaning they might produce early, but not completely out of season. I'm guessing this is due to the length of the days getting continuously shorter until the first day of winter, and then we get into our very coldest time of year until about mid-February. I will try the method you outline to see if it can work here. By the way, I am in Palm Springs, zone 9b (I think). Where are you growing?
Elementaldomain I am in the high desert so o was wondering. I tried planting in bags and they all died. I was thinking about using 5 gall buckets and drippers and also let them wick up. I just can't weed anymore. I built one wicking bed last year with a tote. I'm putting in two more. The hard labor is getting too much for me.
If you cannot bury five gallon buckets, then try two gallon. You will just have to add water a little more often. I did not find drippers work at all because desert water is very high alkaline and will quickly clog the drippers with mineral deposits. You can try something else though that works really well - get one of those wading pools at Walmart - the 4' wide ones. Then put your totes in there. I keep all my strawberries that way. However, if you are going to use the wading pools, you cannot have them in the sun, they have to be under some kind of shade. I grow under 70-90% shade for everything I grow, including fruit trees.
Elementaldomain I have a 80ft high tunnel with 70%shade cloth. That might be enough. The tunnel is full of Bermuda grass and I am not using round up to get rid of it so I'm looking into container planting. But it's too hot for aquaponics. Desert gardening!
Great info, thank you 🙂🙏 Maybe covering the soil on top with mulch, like grass also helps with moisture retention? I'm covering my garden bed and I don't have to water much 😊
Thanks i was precisely looking at airgrowers and thinking "well it's just flexible plastic with holes, with funny texture, there must be a diy way of achieving similar results" thanks so much for this video you uploaded 5 years ago ❤
Nemaste Dr. Naazir. I have just discovered your Garden Tips website and I think that it is WONDERFUL. I just LOVE your gardening tips as they mostly make use of household items which are readily available. What's more, I love your recycling ideas. Great for ecology and reducing waste. Thank you so much for your videos that are chockful of info and presented in a simple, no nonsense manner. With Metta.
Thanks a lot for a wonderful testimonial. Am honored! 🙏
Hi friend. I have tried this experiment.on the small hibiscus plant. It has worked wonders. Once again thank you friend for sharing this experiment. God bless you.
Thank you so much for the feedback.
Hello from South Africa,
I am a hibiscus fan and just made some cuttings today... please share your ideas on how to ensure successful growth of my hibiscus cuttings.....thanks!!!
Great! and with correct English subtitles ! Very good
Larry Hall does videos on air pruning and he waters his plants in a kidde pool. I've done that before and plan to do again...just have to get another pool My dog gives me the LOOK. when I use hers..lol😀
You can get plastic baskets(they look like little trash cans)
at Dollar Tree they work.have orchids in them.
Excellent idea. This method is best only for those who water the plant daily.
Thank you for this method. I like to grow tomato plants
Thank you. OK, I will share.
Amazing knowledge,thank you.Beautiful cat 🐈❤️
Inspired by your vedio i tried few of my plants .it worked wounders.now i have made almost all my plastic pot with many big holes and planted.because of this i dont have to fertilize often and no problem of losing the soil.tons of thanks sir.💐💐
This is the best for plants😊
Thank you my friend! Much love from northern california.

Need a video from you for maintaining plants indoors in cold months ..always looking forward to your videos; scientific explanations and total info. Thank you so much
Here th-cam.com/video/32vvVNN20OA/w-d-xo.html
@@GardenTips thank you. Will take a look.
I am air pruning most of my container plants. I use a soap/shampoo basket with holes that I bought at a plastic store and cover the holes with a fabric from an eco bag. :)
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Adrian Bigno hello sir great idea
Can you share 1/2 pictures at my watsapp no:8285013137 to enable to understand precisely
My regards
Am curious to know about these baskets!
@bhavita any plastic baskets with holes on the sides will count.
How do you trim the roots if the holes are covered i dont get it
Very interesting and common sense strategy to prevent root bound plants. Loved the cameo from the ginger pussycat as well. Thank you from Australia.
Thank you so much for commenting! ❤
great research sir
Very nice information. I'm going to try it out.
Thank you for good tips.
Thank you. Learned something new..

Hello DR. This Method of Air Pruning is very Beneficial for plants like Ferns, Asparagus, and many more, can minimise the bigger pots in terrace, specially cost consumption, good effective for seasonal, lastly we can change, remove container without damaging the roots. Ur research is GENIUS.
Thanks so much mam for adding more info. 🙏
Thumbs up given this is a proven method.
Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
I liked this ! Nothing wrong to try for good experiment .
Thank u so much!
Useful and thank you for information
Excellent information!
Wow ...Why is this not more common
Novel Idea.Must be tried by all garden lovers.
Hello DR. Very Interesting and new method of air pruning, wish to get more information by ur Research and Experiments Thank U DR.
Thank you so much!
Outstanding
Thank you for you wonderful information sir.
Brilliant video! to maintain water retention, would you suggest mulch layer on the surface? I am currently using wicking beds and they are great for long periods of water saving, would it be possible to combine the two ideas? a air pruning system with a wicking bed water delivery system? Although wicking beds use soil, I would suppose it would be more like aquaponics with a constant water supply, with nutrients and great root aeration.
Add coco coir to your dirt for retention and at the bottom mulch
I am going to try weed barrier cloth to keep the soil in.
Try using a mesh like fabric and make bag containers ive done it with old reusable shoping bags and the roots were like what you described i didn't realise it was air pruning the roots. Ill do it on other plants wich are pot bound too i think.
Very interesting video, thanks! I look forward to trying this method. Greetings from Scotland!
I like that you don't strech these videos unnecessarily. Kudos to you.
Nice information sir . Thank you
I am also try it.
Ok, I watched only 3 of your videos subscribed and hit the bell. Best gardening advice!
Great nice experiment...never heard of this...will try it soon
Thank you so much!
Wow...
I was interested with cocopeat pot
new method, thank you, i will try it
Very interesting and learning more things from you Dr. Thanks
Thank you Shrad.
Please keep making more!!
Thank you for sharing..Does the fabric decay or be cause for rot generation ?
Yes it does but takes a long time. By then your plant would be due for repot in a larger container.
Hi thats great and very informative 😊
Thanks. Looks promising. Think I will try this.
👍
Outstanding video Sir, and thank you.
Thank you so much!
I bought real air pruning pots. I am going to use Happy Frog potting soil and mix in water crystals.
I tried the laundry basket type last year. Plants didn't do as well as I wanted. I think I used regular dirt instead of potting mix.
At the end of the year, I removed the soil 'ball'. VERY solid with dirt and roots.
So much so that if I wanted to break it open it would take some work.
I keep forgetting to subscribe, Done it now. I always put a thumbs up. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank u so much!
Thank you for your knowledge and experience.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
thanks for this information
love this idea i might be able to save alot more space when growing tomatos. btw what size of coco pot did you use?
👍 used 10 inch pot.
Interesting will trythis and add more holes to my planters
I under stood what you are saying thanks for sharing the experiment with us I am growing the new plants like this and root rots bhi nai hone wala
Thanks for watching and commenting !
We are going to try at home, good idea.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
loved the air pruning tips
Very important
Nice video. Something new to learn.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Hi
Super , good information :----) .
Thank you so much!
Awesome explanation and planting tips, but what do you do when the roots start protruding through the container holes as the plants get bigger? Do you cut the protruding roots? Do you ever need to transplant into larger pots? What types of plants are best suited for air pruning? Are there plants NOT suitable for this? Can a tree, shrub or very large plant grow using this method, and if so, how do you deternine the starting pot size (or do you need to keep trandplanting?)?
Hi, thank u. Depending on which plant you wanna grow and depending on the size you want, you better choose a larger container instead of transplanting often. For seasonal flowering plants small sized containers will suffice. That's the idea.
Great.,...shall try
An interesting and good information which I am going to try for my tomato plants ! Thanks for the video
Thanks for commenting!
so interesting and using aquaponics water with this would be an interesting experiment.
Clear as mud! I had to listen to 30 seconds of the next video before understand the concept.
hmm interesting ,,going to experiment right away ,,,thank you
Thank you very much for the great video, I'm going to try this on one of my plants, I'm practicing my green thumb on vegetables rite now, I want to grow blue berries strawberries black berries, they all came back every year, can I do them in 5galon buckets in doors, I got some grow lights ?.
Thanks for watching,commenting and sharing your experience. Growing Indoors under grow lights, I have absolutely no experience, because we have enough sunlight in our zone.
Regards.
Awesome Sir...
U mean Air pruning pots and coco coir pots both are same???
Thank u. Air pruning pots are commercial and costly. Same principle happens with coco pots.
Very interesting process. I'll definitely try this out with my tree saplings.
Thanks for the helpful information!
I grow in regular planters with no holes. To prune the roots, I use a 10 inch dry wall saw. Insert the saw into the soil next to the planter wall. Just saw around the planter wall all around the container. It's very quick and doesn't hurt the root system.
Brilliant! But I think using a flamethrower would be safer.
I love your all video. 🌷🌷🌷🌷
I was subcride your video.
Thanks 🌹
@@GardenTips thank you to. 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Great gardening tips ! But i have a confusion.... you did not make any drainage hole in cocopots .... doesn't it require?
Usually not needed, it will seep out itself. But if your soil is not well draining, better make at least one small hole.
Thanx
What a great idea and complete scientific basis. Thanks for sharing.
thanks
Method of air pruning is wonderful and very beneficial. Fantastic idea. Thnx.
👍
Grear info and good video
👍
Too good and useful and infact changes the way of Gardening.
Thanks
thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
good information..regarding the air prunning..and your coco pot...but sir you didnt show comparison result of your so innovative pots the drill plastic pots verses the coco pot of the similar plants and similar conditions. ? thanks.
Very interesting information.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for the great idea! Love the tips.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
That yuvagreen fabric bag ( link of amazon), do we need to make holes all around for air pruning? Great video, thanks
No need to make holes. It’s already a fabric bag with porosity. Drainage holes are already present.
Thanks
I buy a product called Soil Moist... it is lithe crystals that absorb 50x their weight in water. They hold water until the plant needs it... the expansion and contraction of the crystals as they absorb and then release the water helps to keep the soil loose and aerated.... it doesn't get soggy... if you would use to much it just look like you are growing chunks of clear jello... best invention for plants
That's SAP - th-cam.com/video/U9O_2X3JoZU/w-d-xo.html
I have coco coir pots and placed bromeliad in them. Sadly they all died. I am hesitant to use those pots again, firstly, because they do not have drainage holes in them. Can you advice me i what to do? What plants can i put in them that will thrive well?
You can make few small holes. But unless it’s rainy season, holes not required. Here th-cam.com/video/ymuAGRWsVrQ/w-d-xo.html you can grow any plant.
Appreciate all the effort but to draw a conclusion from an experiment you must have a control to compare the results to. Hope you could do that in future.
Really inspiring !!!
Thanks. Yes I mix about 30 percent.
Fervently explain about the soil mix of the tomato plant.Actually I am eagerly awaited to subscribe to your channel.
Wow super tips. Now only i know. Tq so much
Thank you!
Superb technique,thankyou, this can be used in vegetable & milk trays? If yes ,so what are the options for covering the holes apart from jeans,can rice plastic bags be used for this
Thanks. You can use thick gunny bags, fabric rice or better flour bags.
Thankyou
Really good idea I enjoyed this Video on Air Pruning and Planting Concept. You Spoke Well and you had a Lot of Great Information on your Topic which I thoroughly Understood. I too Used this Concept on some of my Plants and had Great Success in Growth. Thank you. Great Video.
