RE: Square pots or round? - Veggie - 25-07-2020
I have some of those carry tray things picked up from various garden centres but I only use them to hold empty pots!! The only way I move pots is in gravel trays as I don't trust myself not to drop the lot!!

I like square ones too - just cos they fit nicely in the trays.
Though as a cake baker
I would choose a round cake to make becaus the square cake of the same size costs quite a bit more to make.I have never bought any pots - beg, borrow or steal ( not quite!) but I do always raid the recycle bin at the garden centre where people drop off their used ones.
Over lockdown this was the only thing I really needed. I ran out of pots for moving in plants
as I usually get stuff back when I've given them out.

Its cool to be square or something...
I much prefer square pots. By the time I die I have an ambition that I will have got rid of all my round pots.
... Its unlikey to happen (getting rid of the round ones, death is of course a certainty)

You could always put 3 or 4 together and shove them where it’s dark and damp for frogs and toads to hide in.

As I have no idea how to post a link go onto Pinterest and have a look at ‘Recycled Planters’

I appear to be the only one who isn't for square pots on this thread.............but I don't care.
I Still prefer round plasticpots which were just a follow on from original clay pots which were usually ROUND.
No idea why I prefer them though.

I like whatever pots are from the charity shop or better still free.
