Default Pots

I have a 1550 square foot house so I'm going to put 16 plants in the
house because I have a breathing problem. I'm thinking of Philodendron
should I put them in clay pots which will weight about 100 pounds
which should give me about a ton of plants or is plastic OK?


Clay pots are a pain in the butt in the house unless something about the
plant requires what clay pots provide. Plastic is a better choice and you
can find it in a huge range of colors, designs, shapes. Philodendrons make
nice hanging plants but I doubt you'll be able to find hanging pots at the
sizes you must be looking for if you're figuring 100# per pot.
