This simple pot-making kit allows you to make your own seedling pots from nothing more than recycled newspapers! You can create an endless supply of sturdy but biodegradable pots for seeds, seedlings and young plants.

Simply roll a strip of paper loosely around a wooden cylinder, tuck under one end to form the base, and use another piece of the kit to twist it securely into place. Fill your new seedling pot with compost and add your seed or seedling. When the seedling has grown, it can be planted directly into the ground without removing it from the pot, so there’s no root disturbance. The pot will naturally biodegrade. Full illustrated instructions are included inside the box.
