Step 2
Measure about half-way down into your container for most plant varieties; slightly deeper for tall or deep rooted plants. At that depth, measure across the container; this will be the insert size you will need.
NOTE 1: The round inserts available are between 10" thru 18" in 1" increments. The square inserts available are between 10.75" thru 14.75" in 1" increments.
NOTE 2: Make sure top of the pot opening is large enough for insert to pass through; the inserts are solid and will not bend.
