Free "green" starter pots.

Got any old newspaper lying around? Newspaper pots are easy to make and there is little or no transplant shock when you plant pot and all, plus the paper helps build your soil and attract worms. All while not adding more usable paper to landfills. Watch the video and try one for yourself with a little practice you can fold one in about 45 seconds. Use these for starter or potting up pots. For tomatoes fill half way with potting soil and plant seed, as seedlings grow add more dirt till bag is full. The stem you bury will spout roots and help the plant from being leggy or spindly.
