How to make seed pots out of newspaper for free - never waste money on seedling trays again

Newspaper seedling pots.

Making seed pots out of newspaper is so simple and satisfying, and it’s great for the environment as you’ll cut down the paper you send for recycling and avoid plastic waste too.

If you're looking to grow your own vegetables from seed this year, or any type of plant you will need something to start them off in. Seedling trays can vary from £1.50 to £10 depending on the material, however, if you have a newspaper subscription save your money as you can make them yourself at home.
