Okay, actually pots. Could someone tell me a good source for 3 inch square pots? I'm tired of wrestling with my round ones.

Two US vendors:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CSRWG75

Or, if you don't mind the wait, an Ebay search for "square plastic flower pots" will get you any number of Chinese sellers of 7cm pots like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/10x-Square-Mult ... 3790912850

Thanks for the info. I bought some 3" round plastic from the slowboat from China and when I got them they wreaked of chemicals. I aired them and potted up some flytraps and they have not done very well. I am wondering if it isn't the pots. I'm going to try and stick US from here on out.

If round pots are acceptable, check these out:

WWP Resources 75 New 3.5" Nursery Plastic Starter pots
$7.50 + $4.49 shipping
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P79K5BG

Top diameter: 3.5 inches / 90 millimeters
Bottom diameter: 2.25 inches / 60 millimeters
Height: 3.125 inches / 82 millimeters
Number of drain holes: 6

They're sturdy, durable pots with the same volume as a 4-inch azalea pot. I showed them to my friend who owns a commercial greenhouse, and he was ecstatic with the find. Between us, we've bought over 2,000 of them. FYI - If you buy multiple sets, the shipping is still $4.49 for the entire order (at least, it was when I ordered my last batch 6 months ago).
