The best peat pots for sprouting seed starters and new saplings

Peat pots are made of firmly compressed peat moss and other wood fibers. These make them environmentally friendly without using nonbiodegradable materials like plastic. You also give the roots of your plant an easy way to break through the original plant pot, which reduces root injury. These peat pots are perfect for your plants to grow and thrive in.

When you are planting in peat pots, you have to make sure that all of your seedlings can fit into the pot. Smaller seeds can hang out in smaller pots, but if you have a growing seedling, a large peat pot will be necessary to fit all of the plant’s budding roots. If you are starting a new garden or vegetable plot, ordering peat pots in bulk will help you get everything done at one time.
