Cleaning 8cm square plastic pots
 
I have a large number of 8cm square plastic pots and would like a
suitable brush for ease of cleaning. All the ones I have found are too
big and very stiff, suitable for ceramic pots. Any ideas please?

I would suggest an "old fashioned" domestic scrubbing brush, or
alternatively soak then for a while in warm soapy water then
clean with aold cloths/rags/shirts or whatever!

Thanks for that Chris, they all look possibles,but sadly there are no
dimensions provided, that I can find, so they could be too large.

Rinse of loose mud etc and put in dishwasher.

If other members of the household object get a 2nd hand one , often
able to be obtained for nothing or just a few pounds . Older the
better as long as it works as less electronic bits to play up. Just
use the rinse progam for most things .
all sorts of things can be washed easier, shoes, car wheel trims ,
some tools , loo brushes

I find they stack up easier if there's no bits of compost / roots / gravel
etc stuck inside any of them
