CowPots, seed starter pots made from composted cow manure fibers, has added three new sizes to its offerings for commercial growers. The new 3-inch round, 7-inch square and 12-inch square pots are a result of customer requests.

“Our commercial customers have asked us to add a 3-inch round pot to complement our 3-inch square pot because some greenhouses and nurseries prefer round over square,” said Matthew Freund, farmer owner of CowPots. “The larger 7- and 12-inch pots allow for bulb planters, larger plants such as garden mums, and combos/mixed containers.”

As with all CowPots, the new sizes will stand up in a commercial nursery for over 12 weeks once filled and will quickly biodegrade once planted in the ground, releasing nitrogen into the soil to aid plant growth. Because the pots are made completely out of composted manure, they encourage extensive, unrestricted root growth.
