    Biodegradable planting pots from old newspapers
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2015*

This wooden pot maker is simple to use and allows us recycle our newspapers into biodegradable pots to start our seeds in.  The pot maker is made of wood so it's sturdy enough for my 8 y/o granddaughter to mash the paper down without breaking it!It's easy to make paper planting pots quickly. I just cut the newspaper into approx. 3" strips then wrap several strips together around the body of the pot maker, then fold some over the bottom and press it into the base (sort of like origami). It's simple to either leave a slight gap or make a small hole in the bottom when folding so your seedlings won't become root bound. That's all it takes to make a paper planting pot.Suggestions: Place your paper planting pots in a level plastic (or metal) tray with sides touching before spooning your planting mix in so they won't fall over and so you have a surface beneath the pots to catch any drainage when watering. Newspaper is biodegradable so you can plant your paper planters directly in the ground.  I stick to the black & white printed section because the ink is soy based and I'm not sure what sort of dye they use for colored sections.

    Outstanding product..
  

*by J***I on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2013*

This is one of the best purchases I've ever made. A sturdy, simple product that does what it says. It works great with newspaper or brown paper grocery bags. I can get 20 pots from a single grocery bag! Sure, it may take a few practice pots to get the hang of it but after that you will save a lot of money and keep some bags and newspapers from going to the landfill. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

    Saves Money
  

*by N***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2014*

This simple device is relatively simple to use but I found a little tape helps hold things together while making the pots. As you learn by doing the process of making the newspaper pots gets faster. This saves a pile of money as compared to peat pots and other commercial plant starting stuff. It will keep on saving for years to come. These little newspaper plant starter pots hold up well during early growing stages and pop easily into the garden soil, where they protect the tender transplant from cut worms and root shock.
