Coffee Sleeve Transplant Pots

Step 4Keep it together and put in a plant

Keep it together and put in a plant
Keep all the tabs tucked in by inserting the other square piece inside the assembly.

Take a look inside the pot. If you see daylight, you've folded something a little crooked, and soil/water will come out more easily. You may want to go back and try refolding one or both of the sides. Otherwise, your pot is ready to receive its cargo. I've given several of these with an herb in them as gifts, but it should also hold up well for personal use if you're starting cuttings. When the pot gets nice and soggy, just plant the whole thing in the ground, or you can throw the pot into your compost bin at the end.

I hope you enjoy sharing your garden with others by way of these little pots. Feedback and comments are greatly appreciated.
