Newspaper pots

I decided to sow all the seeds into newspaper pots this time, to see if it made things easier to deal with later on. The idea is that the pots can be planted straight out as are, and will decompose naturally. You can buy a pot maker proper for about fifteen squid, or you can just wrap paper around the bottom of a deodorant can like I do! just wrap a strip of paper round the bottom of the can 3-5 times (however long the strip is) and then fold over the bottom. The good thing about spray cans is they have a bit of an indent at the bottom, which means when you fold over the paper you can push it slightly in on itself and it stays like that when you slide it off the can.
