I learned a new way to plant seeds without disturbing the roots in transplant.
Check it out. The newspaper dissolves in the soil

Like the idea .
Some nursery sales wooden mold( top and bottom) to make paper cup for plant seeding.
Has anyone tried using a biodegradable “plastic” cup, such as this one, in this application and, if so, how did it fare?
I doubt that kind of material will break down in the soil. If I remember it correctly, they are “compostable” only in certain conditions. I think that means in hot, regularly turned windrows like they use for manure and yard waste.
Somehow planting things in the dirt with the obits just seems…weird.
I thought something similar. Could do an experiment and compare ones wrapped in Birth Announcements.
