taller pots

[The Griffin]

Hi,
Does anyone know where to get those 4" square pots that are taller than wide?

Thanks,

Joe

Cool, that's all I wanted to really know. I do not want to buy any....

Okay smart guy, can you divulge that info to me, lol?

Cheers,

Joe

LOL I just couldn't resist.

Not sure exactly what size you are looking for but you can buy smaller quantities here. They have a 4.25" square listed. I purchased a 4" x 5 1/3" square but it looks like it is only available by case.

Thanks Tony. I bookmarked it. Those are pretty reasonable.

Charley's Greenhouse has deep pots too, but they have minimum order quantities.

I've bought those pots from Grower's Solution and they are very good though somewhat thin walled. Their shipping can be pretty high too.

If you are innovative, you can use plastic cups and drill holes in them. I found some nice 33 oz ones at the dollar store, but they fell over easy-and they were not that narrow at the bottom(like your standard convenience store cup).

Cheers,

I've had success finding small, tall pots by searching tree farm suppliers. Sapling pots seem to be pretty much universally tall and narrow, and come in all sorts of sizes. Not sure of the prices, since I never had adequate funding and motivation to place an order, but once I started looking for sapling pots I was able to find lots of vendors.

I have actually had this site book marked for some time. I think Pyro has used these:

What about cutting a length of plastic pipe and attaching a bottom to it? Not sure how practicle it is but you could get the exact height you want.
