AC InfinityInstant Potting Mix Kit, 2-Plant Starter Set with Premium Buffered Coco Coir Bricks, 5-Gallon Fabric Pots, and Waterproof Multipurpose Trays, Grow Accessory Kit for Seed Germination

AC Infinity. What else can I say. Great product.

AC Infinity the leader in grow tents and accessories is expanding their product line, and I couldn't be happier! As a home gardener who gives away dozens of floral arrangements to friends and family in our tiny florist bereft town, any time I can use an AC Infinity product, I know the quality will be fantastic. This set it no exception.First, this kit includes 2 grow bags, 2 potting mats and 4 bricks of cocoa coir, which is enough to fill the two grow bags. They all work together perfectly. Here's how each item in the set stacks up.POTTING MATS: I have about a dozen potting mats. They are all basically the same. These are not. These are like the Lamborghini of potting mats. First, they are a white vinyl material on one side and a black canvas on the reverse. Importantly, the corner of each mat uses TWO sets of snaps to make the corner and ONE additional snap to secure the snapped corner to the side to create a more stable tray. I've never seen this in any other potting mat.I note that most of the pix in the reviews do not show the corners properly snapped to the sides.GROW BAGS: Grow bags are tied for the best grow bags I've used. I've used hundreds of grow bags, including those which can only be ordered from specialty horticultural suppliers. What makes these bags so useful is the: (a) shape (very tall, almost 12 inches), (b) material and stitching is sturdy but still allows for proper drainage, (c) handles are webbed material and easy to grab and (d) grommets! Not many grow bags have grommets, but they are super useful if you need to add a cage or stakes to the bag. The grommets are black, which is a nice touch. The standout here for me is the shape. I love that they are so tall. I plant tulips every year in grow bags and these are the perfect shape!POTTING MEDIUM- COIR: This is a neutral potting medium. Depending on what you plant, you may need to add some fertilizer.HOW TO: At the end of the day, this is a bit of a messy process. If you cannot pot up whatever you're potting outside, then do the potting on a counter next to a sink, so any excess water can be easily drained in the sink. Alternatively, moisten up the coir in a bucket or bowl and then transfer them to the grow bags (with the grow bags sitting in the mats) when you're actually potting up the seedlings or seeds.TLDR: All in all, a great all in one kit. It makes potting up seedlings or larger plants simple. If you added a couple dozen mixed spring bulbs, this would be a great gift to give someone in fall to easily delivery huge bags of spring flowers in spring!

The product was well packed in a box, nicely folded and arranged. The workmanship is great. These fabric pots are made with thick materials and were beautifully created. Sewing is neat and the trays are nice. This is not an instant potting mix as indicated in the ad, it is coco coir and nothing else so how can you call it a mix? I will not follow the directions about preparing this in the house. I will do it in the yard. After the coco coir has been properly prepared I will add perlite, vemiculite, fertilizer, sand, and compost and mix them all thoroughly. This will give me a good foundation for plants. Per the ad, you could use these as is if you are only interested in seed germination, but a five gallon pot is rather big just for seed germination. The plants will eventually need more than coco coir. Overall 4 stars and recommended.

This is a great grow kit. The trays come in handy when mixing soil or potting plants. The coco coir bricks are great for starting any kind of seed. It holds water well without rotting roots. The coco coir has no minerals or fertilizers in it that could burn the sensitive roots of seedlings.The 5 gallon buckets are made of quality fabric that allows the plants to breathe and access water to drain. The are large enough to not have to replant most plants. You can start most types of veggies and plants in this very fabric grow pot and leave it there for the whole season, no more repotting or potting up. It's a one and done type of thing. The fabric pots have a breathable fabric that is also lightweight. Allowing sufficient air flow to the plants roots. Also while providing sufficient space for the plant and roots to grow as needed.Each fabric grow pot has a set of handles , so you are able to easily lift and move your plant as needed.The coco coir bricks are the best part of this deal-aside from the low price currently at $29.99 USD.I use coco coir for all of my seed starting. I use it for propagation and as a soil additive.This coco coir is free from pests, has a neutral PH balance and it only needs to soak in water ( I used distilled for coco coir because tap may have harsh chemicals) for about 30 minutes before it begins to expand. But because it is light and fluffy, it's great for seeds especially cactus seeds and even African violet seeds with germinate in this medium. 2 bricks will fill one 5 gallon fabric pot.The quality of all products in this kit are excellent and extremely durable and I will order again and will /have recommend(ed) to everyone I know that deals with plants of any kind. It's amazing how much you get in this get and the great quality, offered for an affordable price. I wish more companies were like this one. 10 out of 10!!
