Where to buy cheap plant pots!

[PakiWeed]

Hey guys, I live in a weird country, I've been in every single shop and they have no cheap and decent planting square pots nor rounded ones. My plants are now ready to be transplanted into bigger pots and I don't know where to get ones... Does anybody know an online (chinese) or some shop where I can buy cheap plants with free shipping or small fee at least. Thanks!

If your weird country has cops then you will have these. Go to a donut/pastry shop and get their 4 gal buckets that they use for their filling.I could get them free when I was in Ca. Suerte JK

A regular nursery usually have tons of extra used pots of all sizes stacked up. Free or dirt cheap.

+2 on the food grade buckets.

A place that sells plants. For example: If you were gonna plant a Mandarin tree, the place you would go to buy it at, they should have plastic containers.

Thank you! Well I was at 4 different places and all they have is strong plastic rounded pots and not much of a difference... those weren't good enough for this. :(

Try burlap bags we use them on the farm all the time. Rice bags.

尝试粗麻布袋我们在农场一直使用他们。米袋子。

Peace bro

This time of the year a lot of places are planting,(commercial,residential etc.) If you can think of a place that is planting anything?Go their and I'm sure they will give you all the pots you need.Dollar stores have those thrash cans and stuff.

new construction sites that are wrapping up construction will be doing their landscaping. they will have hundreds of empty pots of every size all stacked up and ready to go;)

You could also make your own smart pots. There are lots of DIY smart pot tutorials out there.

They sell black plastic grow bags that are like fifty cents for a five gal bag. Five gallon buckets at Home Depot are like 1.99 right now.

There are SO MANY ways to hold soil in a container I don't even know where to begin. A Ziploc baggie with the edges folded over and a few holes poked in it. Flour sacks. The leftover bags your soil comes in, with some additional holes poked in. Old coffee cans. Plastic storage bins. Pantyhose or knee-highs. ANY bucket, with a few holes drilled in it. Just countless ways.

started with folgers coffee cans, used 5 gallon buckets, milk crates with weed barrier lining. Lots of stuff can be "converted" Just look around the house ;)

 

[organicozarks]

Reusable fabric shopping bags are a dollar or less. They are a very cheap 5 gallonish smart pot with handles.

Thank you everyone for such great suggestions! :D I have found lots of stuff to put the soil in right at home, paint bucket :)
