Marshall was dancing around this, but didn't exactly say it: You can use gallon milk jugs for pots--just cut the top off. They aren't very pretty, and are top-wobbly, but if you don't have to carry them around much, they will work. Also, I use a milk jug with the bottom cut off, for a hot cap when I put out plants early.

Maybe dancing around it, but I couldn't help myself...I was listening to Karen Carpenter's Only Yesterday...

Yep, gallon jugs cut in half, plenty of drain holes...
Lots and lots of things.

Cardboard shoebox wrapped with duct tape makes a flat...


Remember,

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF A POT ARE THE HOLES ON THE BOTTOM

Lol, you guys are funny. We don't drink much milk at all and buy the carton milk, it lasts 2-3 times longer and thus ends up actually being used.

I think I'm going to buy the fish bags and tape them together.
