Biodegradable Seed Pots

December 19, 2018

Before you make your selection of which type of pot to use, think about whether you want to reuse the container. A reusable container will be more stable and permanent, but biodegradable seed plugs allow you to plant the entire cell directly into a larger pot or your garden without lifting out the seedling or disturbing its root system.

There are many bio-degradable container options for seed starting.

These biodegradable seed starting cells can be planted directly into a larger container, or into the garden, once the seedling's roots reach the bottom and edges of the plug cell.
