N. ViroPotter Story

To Everything There Is A Season.

"To Everything there is a season and a time for every purpose unto heaven".... And so it is with ideas.

In the spring of 1998, when a mother needed seedling pots while her young children were napping, the N.ViroPotter was invented.

Picture this.....  

She dug out her 5 year old trays, her 3 year old peat pots and a collection of seeds that spanned several years of good intentions. It was time. Envisioning an abundant, luscious garden growing, she opened the seed packs. Who knew there were so many tiny seeds in one package?

Two plastic trays, a few peat pots, lots of soil ... TOO MANY SEEDS! She'd run out of seedling pots .The children were sleeping. She couldn't go to a store. What to do? Some would give up on the project, but not our determined inventor. She was in the mood! It'd been years! She was on a roll.

"Surely to goodness I can come up with something. What would make good pots?... Hmmmm...... Paper... Paper. That's it. ...Ah.....Newspaper!   Stacked right here. Perfect."

A very quick process, actually, .... for a mother pack rat on a mission. Yes! - a form (the humble beginnings of the N.ViroPotter)! Voilà -homemade seedling pots!

The folding technique? Serendipity isn't just a word. It's when something good just happens and you know it's meant to be. It was a moment. She knew just what to do.

With biodegradable newspaper, a folding technique that requires no tape or glue, one N.ViroPotter roller can make an infinite supply of seedling pots. You can make them without leaving home, while children are napping. Children are good at making them, too.

This is a true story.
