I've been using Root Pouches for years now; I still have the original Brown Longest lasting ones; 6 years now. Over the last 3 years, I've been buying the cheaper grey ones.

Mine get so gross; I think it's moss grossing on the sides especially near the base. It is bright green and furry like moss in the woods. The plants really don't seem to mind.

Last year at the end of the season, I pressure washed them all; pressure washed with what you would wash your deck not the heavy duty gas ones that you pressure wash the driveway.

They came out great - really like new.

Over the years, I would put the hose on JET and try to get the 'moss' off;

This season, I've used the 'light' pressure washer twice already while the plants are still in them. The top 6" or so of the pouch is usually clean, so I don't hit it with the water.

The pool of water from the spray is green.
