The lifespan of a grow bag depends on the material used. Fabric grow bags typically last for a few seasons if taken care of properly, while plastic grow bags can last longer but may degrade over time, especially if exposed to direct sunlight. Reusable grow bags made from high-quality materials can last for several years.
The depth of installation depends on the tree’s root system. Typically, HDPE root barriers are installed at a depth that covers the majority of the tree's root zone. The barrier should be installed deep enough to prevent roots from penetrating beneath it but shallow enough to allow sufficient growth of the tree roots above.
