well nobody sells small plastic pots like what are cps come in. checked kmart-homedepo-lowes (a girl working there gave me two 6"pots- only thing she had laying around. need them smaller then that. where do you guys find small plastic pots?
 
You don't. I don't think they sell them retail. I went on the same wild goose chase that you're on a few years ago. I never found any.
There's a company in Cleveland that makes them but I don't remember their name. I'll look it up for you later if you want.
I also found a greenhouse in Sandusky that sells sqaure pots. I can remeber the size though. Or your last option is to let me send you some. I have alot of them that a friend of mine that owns a greenhouse gave me. They're used and you need to clean them before you use them. But I can send you some.
 
In Seattle we have a place called the Indoor Sun Shoppe. They specialize in hyroponics so they have all kinds of plastic pots! I bought some for the sarracenia grab bag plants that I recently got from pft. They're small pots and I even bought the perfect square plastic tray to keep them all in. It's 10 x 10. The bottom half of the pots have even slits in them... making them perfect for growing cp's.
I bought 3 inch pots, but they also have 2 and 1 inch pots! The tiniest ones are perfect for starting seeds!
 
ozzy- thanks i will keep you in mind- i repotted both of my small sundew in 6"pot together- so if i do need small ones i will drop you mail. thanks for the other post's guys, i will also keep those ideas in mind when i need some more

not a need for small pots like these thats why i bet they dn't sell them at stores.
 
My local nursery sells 3 inch plastic pots for I believe .29 apiece.... I suggest you go with the 9 ounce plastic drinking cups. Just burn a couple drainage holes in the bottom and voila instant pot (20 for 1.59 at my local grocery store)

Good luck

In kansas city local nursiers sell them for about a quater

there about 3 inches i think you can also order them off of this site for a buck pretty expensive plus you have to pay shipping
