I really love my fabric "smart pots" by Viagrow, HOWEVER they have an inherent flaw that is a huge pain in the arse: they dry quickly around the perimeter which causes the soil to shrink up away from the border all the way around, no matter how much perlite and vermiculite is added lol. So when it comes time to water, it's very difficult to get the water to the plant because it just wants to run right down the sides and out of the pot. It is mitigated by watering slowly and with a drop of soap (surfactant), but no matter what, the soil around the exterior is always dry. The Airpots could be the best of both worlds, allowing some air, but still solid enough to hold water properly.
