You need to set
them in a tray that provides some support, because the "pots" will
eventually break down, as they should.


Would masking tape degrade with the pots? Obviously sellotape wouldn't, but
I'm just thinking of someway to keep them secure. I guess you could do it
just by folding over, but I was worried that would come undone!

Place the tubes close together in a deep plastic icecream carton which
supports them almost to the top. Then you don't need to tape them at
all, and the newspaper (and compost) remain damp. Take care when you
unpack them to plant out, so that the newspaper holds together just long
enough to get it into the hole.

Janet.
