What Makes It Uncommon

Yesterday’s news can be tomorrow’s tomatoes. Or radishes, petunias, and whatever else you want to grow. This clever kit lets you turn recycled newspapers into little planters that are ideal for growing seedlings, and lets you skip pots made from less sustainably produced materials like plastic and peat.

  • Follow the included instructions to make as many newspaper pots as you need with the easy-to-use press.
  • Start your seedlings in the newspaper pots; when it’s time to move them outside (or to a bigger container), simply plant the whole newspaper pot in soil—the paper will compost away naturally over time.
  • Creates an environment in which it’s easier for roots to stretch and grow for stronger, more resilient plants.
  • Made in China.

Usually ships within 24 hours.

Winter project

I start lots of plants indoors and growing and transplanting is a pain. Looking forward to making lots of pots to improve the process



On average, how many seeds do you recommend to plant in this? Example small seeds like a purple coneflower, etc.

Verified reply from Justin

The nursery personally recommended using 4-6 seeds per pot for the cone flower seeds. They also advised that referencing the seed packets that come with your order or searching through google should provide accurate results as well.
