I like this!!!! I will use this for my outdoor and then I can just set them in the plot and the roots will penetrate the newspaper! Great find rob!

Yeah, what about the ink? What obout the carcinogenic dioxins that the paper manufacturers use to bleach the paper? Good thought and good to be thinking.

I just made 2 in about 2 minutes, 498 to go. LOL better go get some free newspaper. K+ for the money saver on my part!

You can also use the entire newspaper and make lager ones. The only reason he cut it in half was to make it smaller. If you can find extra large newspapers you can have some pretty big grow bags.

I dont know how well they will hold up though Celsius... At a 4x4 inch cube, there is not much mass pushing on the soaked paper bottom... with an 8 inch "bag" you have considerably less structural support and strength to the bag...
