10 years ago, I used a commercial pot which was made from newspaper. I
had only a few that a customer sent his plants in for the MP lab. They
had walls 1/8 or 1/4 inch thick and tended to fall apart at the bottom
after some month, but not in a few days like the pumpkin grower wants. I
would rate the thin walled peat pots much higher starting pumpkins.
The factory had broken the papers down to pulp and molded the pots
from pulp.
