PLEASE NOTE REGARDING PLANTER BAG SIZE AND APPEARANCE
(For more information, please read this article: “Understanding Plant Bag Volumes”)
If the planter bag you receive appears smaller than expected, don’t worry yet. Check the ‘lay-flat’ measurements shown in this listing – the actual measurements of the bag when it is laying flat, exactly as you receive it.
The first step is to compare the bag you received with the flat measurements provided in this listing (not the filled dimensions) to ensure you have been sent the correct product.
If you are still unsure, you can easily verify the bag’s capacity using an online volume calculator. To do this, use the filled bag dimensions, which are also provided in this listing.
For example, once a 9.9 Quart bag is filled with potting mix, the dimensions are approximately:
- Top Diameter: 8.6 inches (220mm)
- Height/Depth: 19.7 inches (245mm)
Simply search online for a cylinder volume calculator and enter the diameter and height measurements. Most calculators will ask for these dimensions in either inches or centimeters.
After entering the measurements, the calculated volume should be approximately 9.35 Liter (9,320 cm³) or 9.85 US Quarts.
Container sizes can often be deceiving. Everyday items such as milk jugs, soft drink bottles, and buckets have tapered sides, curves, and narrow necks that make it difficult to accurately judge volume by appearance alone. Even a standard household bucket may look much larger or smaller than its actual capacity.
In smaller containers especially, even a slight change in dimensions can make a significant difference to the overall volume.
