These are basket and containers sizes for the outside.
Due to the fact the basket or container is usually sitting alone and has a lot of air movement around it they need more water that a group of plants sittting together.
Unless you are home you need to buy baskets 10 inch or larger for the outside since anything smaller cannot hold enough water on a warm sunny day in July.
Remember that in the greenhouse industry there are no standards. A quart jar of pickles holds 32 onces. A ten inch basket varies between 281 and 450 cubic inches. There are many different manufactures and each one has a different size. To confuse the issue more each manufacturer has different sizes of 10 inch baskets.
We use a Kord true 10 inch basket. It holds the most volume of any 10 inch basket. That is all you need to remember.
