I can’t dispute Bully when he says he stole the seed storage idea from me and improved upon it. Both statements are true. But you see Bully, all of us don’t have your wealth.

I have to go out in the woods and fell a tree with my pocket knife, cut it up into little pieces and then glue them together to get my storage boxes.

wuhhhhhh?

Yeah, Jerry....I know exactly whatcha mean. The first time I met you I remembered your story of walking to school, no shoes, in the snow...5 miles...uphill...(both ways!)...so I know a bit more than most of your early struggles.

And then Bully gets chauffered to Choptag in his Bentley....jeesh....when 2 worlds collide.....indeed.

Mighty fancy whittlin' Jerry! They grow some nice hardwoods in your area.

Self: my experience with paper pots was similar to yours. They just didn't grow as well as the ones in plastic pots.

I found that they were fine for about four weeks; any longer than that and the plants started to yellow, which was about the same time that the pots started to break down and get more fragile. They still held together fine, but it got easier to stick my thumb through them.

Still, they cost nothing, and they work better than nothing. :wink:
