Last rear I used coir pots that I purchase from Griffens greenhouse supply to sell my tomato plants at the local farmers markets I sell at.
The coir pot is just a bit more costly than plastic containers, but environmentally better. They are bio-degradable and also provide nutrients like zinc, magnesium, copper and iron, all beneficial to healthy plant growth, and its high resistance to mold-great for greenhouse growing.
This was a big seller at the market, many liked the idea of the coir pot and how they could just plant the entire thing right in the ground.
Has anyone else used these containers? I really like them and they look great at Market Stand.
