How does planter depth affect root development in rattan containers?
The depth of a planter plays a crucial role in the root development of plants grown in rattan containers. Shallow planters may restrict root expansion, leading to stunted growth, while excessively deep containers can cause waterlogging and root rot. For optimal results, choose a planter depth that matches the plant's root system—typically 1.5 to 2 times the root ball's height. Rattan containers, with their natural breathability, help maintain healthy root conditions when paired with proper depth. Adjusting planter depth based on plant species ensures robust root development and overall plant vitality.
