We started out with a blend of commercial seed starting mix and some compost from the back yard.

 

 

  1. Cut strips of newspaper about 1.5x as tall as the can you will use.  We used a tomato paste can.  Cut them long enough to wrap around the can about 2.5 times.

  2. Roll the newspaper around the can with the excess length on the end that is open.

  3. Tuck the excess ends down into the can.

  4. Pull the newspaper off of the can.

  5. Push the can down in the UNfolded end of the newspaper flattening the inward folded paper to form the bottom of the 'pot'.

  6. Pull the can out and your pot is complete.
