Easy to use
Infinitely easier and less hassle than the old 'wrap it round a glass' technique. They do dry out faster than coir plant pots, though. It would also be great if it were possible to get them in a larger size for potting on. Over all, I love it and would recommend it.

Easy peasy paper pots
Making your own paper pots is a quick and easy way to save money in the garden, and recycle waste paper into something useful. Although you can find instructions for folding paper pots on the internet, using a Paper Potter makes the whole process really quick and fool-proof. I've had mine for several years now, and it comes out every spring to make a great swathe of pots that are perfect for seedlings. Once the plants are ready to plant out you can just plant the whole thing - the newspaper breaks down in the soil and the plant roots grow through it - meaning no root disturbance and very happy plants!
