Have you ever made your own newspaper pots before? If you haven’t, they are are super easy to make. Some people use tin cans, but I prefer to use the Pot Maker. I’ve found I can whip out a batch of 50 pots for me seedlings in about 20 minutes.

I’ve also heard of people using toilet paper rolls, but I’ve always worried the cardboard would not breakdown and the roots would compact, so I prefer making seedling pots out of newspaper instead.

Here is how to use the Pot Maker.

These pots are not only easy to make, but thrifty too. Free newspaper √ Free labor √ {have your kids make them} Life is good!

Bontanical Interests has the Pot Maker on sale right now for $12.98.

Do you make your own pots? Which method do you prefer?
