Product Trial: Paper Pots



 I received this item a while ago to try out.   It's called Paper Pots:  the Perfect Patio Planter.  It is made of paper yes, but has a coating on the inside which makes it durable and leak proof.  It is just a rectangle bag and I wondered how it would stand and be stable.  Not to worry, once the soil is in place, the Paper Pot stands flat and stable.

This photo came with the Paper Pot and demonstrates the finished product.  You may fold down or cut the top to suit your needs, I chose to fold it down.

Here's mine planted with a lemon boy tomato.  The Paper Pot is quite large.  I filled it with a 28.3 L (4.8 kgor 10.6 lb) bag of soil, though it could hold a bit more. Stay tuned, I will let you know how I like this product in future posts.  For more information on this product see Paper Pots.

Hmmm, this is interesting. I wonder what the advantage of a paper planter is? I guess because it is disposable when the season is over? I'll want to read your update on how you like using it!

I will be staying tuned to how you like the pot planter too, it sounds very interesting. I was also wondering what the advantage of paper pots are, but then got to thinking, could you put them inside of say, metal urns, as a liner? I was just thinking how convenient a liner would be. Hope you keep us posted!
