Picked up some 1-gallon pots

[Proud Marine Dad]

Just picked up twenty 1-gallon nursery pots at Home Depot at lunch. The lady asked why so many and I told her for peppers. She probably thought I was growing weed. Hahaha

 

[juanitos]

i don't really like dealing with people so i usually order stuff online.

Hahahahhahhaha             Wait… Wouln't she be correct?        
 
Anyhoo. How much did they cost? You planning on OWing in them?

Only five of them are for that. Haha
They are $.98 each. If I needed a lot I would drive out 20 miles and get used ones for $.05 each but the gas price wouldn't justify it unless I needed a lot.

Not too small? 

I go from the propagator to 4" pots to 1 gallon pots then my final pots that are 5-10 gallon. Tomatoes and Pakalolo are going in 17 gallon pots. OWing?

I get that all the time at Friedmans (like a home depot). Employee says " this is the best stuff for your fruitless tomatoes u should try this."    lol

OWing?

 
     Overwintering. Those are a good size for a pruned rootball. I might have to pick some up. I'm sick of finding space for a dozen 5 gallon buckets in my house all winter.

     But that's… work.  Besides, it's hard to beat $.98 for something that'll last years.
 
 
     Plus, I'm almost positive that a fabric pot would just turn into a scratching post / urinal for my cats...

Oh but I like to encourage them, I always act baked when I buy a bag of compost from the store.

    Hahahahahaaha! I just got this mental image of some dude lost in the plumbing department, permagrinned, and covered in Cheetos dust asking what their best soil is for growing "flowers"!

     Thanks for that! It's been a while since I laughed so hard I snorted.
 
 
edit: btw, you owe me for one mouthful of Miller High Life...

I'd have told her it was for weed just to see her face, then told her about my peppers after.
 
But I do Live in a semi legal state.
 
 
Also have you heard of Wally bags? .50 cents each for 5 gallon bags that last 2-3 seasons

I get stereotyped like that all the time.  Just because I'm younger and a male.  I find it hilarious.  I just say " I wish I could grow buds" then I just let em think what they want.  Don't bother me at all.

Second that. Read a good article recently about how that company actually drags down local economies from employees pulling so hard on social assistance to supplement substandard wages.
