Growbag

Growbag

A growbag is a large plastic bag filled with peat or a similar growth medium. It was initially produced in the 1970s. The system was originally invented for home use but has since spread into market gardening and farming.

The bag contains enough nutrient for one year's growing and requires only planting and watering. Growbags come in varieties suited to specific crops. They are being used in increasing amounts to bring vegetation into urban areas.
