FAQ:
Q: Can I use any plastic plant pot for these hacks?

Q: How do I clean the pots before reuse?
A: Wash with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and let dry completely.
Q: Are these hacks safe for food storage?
A: Generally, plastic plant pots are not food-grade, so avoid using them for direct food contact unless lined with a food-safe material.
