Thanks for the video. The only thing i dont like is it takes 2 min per pot. I need around 400 per season and therefore i would be inside for about a month making them. I do think it is a much better way of doing things as they are completely biodegrdable unlike the plastic ones i use.
I do tend to use plug trays as that way you can move all of your plants around easily. If you are going to use plastic though like me i use trays that are made to last, not disposable ones.. Thanks again

But, you had to try so many times and barely was able to get it to work by the end. It took soooo long too. It looks like it won't hold and when I try to replant them, to pick them up to put in the ground, everything will fall out of the bottom. I just don't want to waste my time on something that doesn't work. Can you make a video of how they look and are when you have watered them a long time and then pick them up to plant them? Thank you:)

probably whole wheat

I do need to say I like your method, and the flour paste is creative! The other ones use too big a mold. How long will the seedling grow in this before I'd have to give it a bigger one? Or will it be big enough to transplant outside at that point? Thank you, Karen

Did you just take a single sheet of newspaper and cut it down to a certain size?

The paste from flour looked a bit darker colored than I would expect.

It looks kinda cute. But it looks like it doesn't work.

Of course it works. It's just like papier mache, and it lasts through months of watering. Eventually, you plant the seedling with the paper starter pot. If you want to help the seedlings, you can cut the pot before you plant it, but I've found it breaks down quickly once it's in the ground.

It's whole wheat flour. And you can put these directly into the ground. There is no need to transplant the seedlings. Finally, yes -- it was one piece of newsprint. Recycled paper with a soy-based ink.

What type of glue are you using?
Thanks in advanced.

There is no glue. It's just a little flour mixed with water to make a paste.
