Newspaper Pot Maker

thingiverse

To prepare for spring planting, create newspaper pots without adhesive or tape for starting plants. Simply roll strips of newspaper around the provided cylinder and secure with pressure, then remove the cylinder to form the bottom of the pot. Fill with soil, insert a seed, and place in a tray with an inch of water daily to keep the paper damp. Once ready to plant, bury the entire pot directly into the ground for delicate-rooted plants like melons and cucumbers. The STL file is designed for 2" pots, but the SCAD file allows customization of size. The design also ensures a hollow structure by including a tiny hole at the top to prevent wasting filament.
