Biodegradable Seed Starting Pots FAQs

Why are these seed-starting pots round?

The round shape allows more air to circulate between pots when they're grouped together. Better ventilation helps the pot walls stay sturdy during the seed-starting period, making them especially useful for seedlings that need a little more time before transplanting.

Can I save unused Biodegradable Seed Starting Pots for next season?

Yes. Unused CowPots can be stored indefinitely when kept in a cool, dry location. Be sure to protect them from moisture during storage, since keeping the pots dry is essential to maintaining their condition.

Can seedlings be moved from these pots into larger containers?

Yes. These pots work well for seedlings that will either be transplanted directly into the garden after the danger of frost has passed or stepped up into larger growing containers as they mature.

How long will Biodegradable Seed Starting Pots last before breaking down?

The pots are designed to remain intact for up to three months under greenhouse growing conditions. After being planted in the soil, they naturally begin to break down.

What types of plants are best for these seed-starting pots?

Their three-inch size is especially well suited to herbs, vegetables, and annual flowers that will be transplanted relatively quickly or moved into larger containers as they grow.
