Could I cut these into individual seedling pots using a cardboard cutter or something? Would they be sturdy on their own? Thanks!

I would have to say no. Maybe in 4's. If you want to start individuals go with a bigger peat pot. Maybe 4"

Yes definitely We start with them together and then when our seeds sprout, we cut the pots to plant them. As long as you pack them with enough dirt and dont over water they will withstand :)

The only time that I separated them was at the time of planting in the garden. Sorry.

Hey there. I just used these pots again and have germination. I separate these little pots using scissors. It makes transplanting easy. They are sturdy, but I wouldn't let them stand alone. They conveniently disintegrate; I love them;)

I would see no reason why not. It's just a plastic tray so removing the seedlings should be easy enough

Hi Suryeah, Oh yes, they are super sturdy. Cascading plants are very lovely as well. The only small problem is make sure the weight (soil and plants) are evenly distributed. I have fuchsias in mine and tinkerbells. Just lovely windchimes

They arent really intended to be cut - they snap together. However , Id imagine a hack saw / sawsall would cut it just fine.

Since they are separate pieces you can make them as wide or narrow as you need. they are VERY difficult to put up alone. I recommend someone to help.

Hi Chad,I purchase these last year and put 8inch pots up with them and they lasted all through a Colorado summer and winter. They were super sturdy!

You could...but I don't know how long they would hold up. Maybe succulents that didnt' require much water. I would look elsewhere for planters though.

That would be a nice gift, but you would have to replant them in small clay pots; foil the base or tie a ribbon around the pot. A note on what it is and how to take care of it would be helpful.

I'm not sure if you can but I put them in potting soil and watered them with unfertalized water and waited until they started visably growing before fertilizing With a liquid fertilizer mixed with water. For me it took about 3 months for them to take root and visably start growing. They are doing great and are about 6 inches tall with 4, 3 inch leaves. I've had them for about 9 months. I'd recommend doing some Internet research and find out what you need to know. I wish you luck.

I bought the stainless steel ones and they have grooves in the plastic that you can bend back and forth to break them apart. I suppose you could cut them as well just didn't need to. I don't know about the all plastic pigeon spikes though.

You would need to slice them lengthwise, in order to be able to properly cut a sweet potato. Say, no more than 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch thick. Works great for them if they're not to thick.

They're quite thin and flexible, but still sturdy enough. They can be 'creased' along an edge and they will retain that crease. To cut them, you should score them first with an xacto knife, then crease along that score and they'll snap into to pieces.

I think they would be good for starting seeds, but not a larger plant. They are very small - only big enough to hold a helping of M&Ms or thumbtacks.

I am trying to do this with my kids as a project.... i have a "beginner" question: After it germinates , do we need to remove the cardboard and replant? or are the roots supposed to push through? we are only doing these in 5-gallon buckets and not in the ground. thank you for your help!

Yes, they can be cut with some scissors, but it might not look very nice. It would not have the support of the thick, clear plastic tray it sits in presently.

Yes you can use your own seeds. You must because no seeds come with the pack. I am not sure how you would not use the sponge. That holds the seed in place. You put the sponge in a "basket." If you tried to put a seen into the basket, it would probably fall out unless it was a very large seed, like a lima bean or something.
