(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

What Tia nothing ready????? well quit chattin online and get out and get busy girl...ROFLMAO

(Becky) Colmesneil, TX(Zone 8b)

Tia.. I still have a few I need to dig too... Queen procrastinator here!!..LOL

(Tia) Norman, OK(Zone 7a)

I dont have any pots to put anything in. All I have is the large ones and if I use them I will be limited on space.

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

get some plastic cups and make some holes in the bottom of them they work good

(Becky) Colmesneil, TX(Zone 8b)

welll you know... you could always just stick them in walmart sacks too.. try to get the smaller ones.. would be more like a gallon pot size...that could be for larger ones.. I don't remember what size you might have , but there are all kinds of containers you could use. It is best like Phyllis said to make holes in the bottom. I have gobs of pots.. wish we lived closer!

Kemp, TX(Zone 8a)

Tia, did you know you can make pots out of newspaper? It's really not hard, and it's quick... there's a thread on DG somewhere that tells how.

(Tia) Norman, OK(Zone 7a)

Oh kewl do tell

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

The video was made by Dave, and used to be at "Guides and information" and then "videos". I'll try to look more, can't find it right now, but I've watched it before. Newspaper seed pots or something.

****NOTE***** I was informed by Admin that the video is no longer up. They put some newer ones up in it's place, but it may one day be available by archive. There really was nothing to it, basically shaping newspaper into a little pot, adding soil and then planting. Place newspaper pots in a tray of water if you are sowing seeds. When plant is ready, plant the whole thing in the ground and the paper will eventually dissolve. HTH, Karen
