You can get these at Canley Vale nursery along with every other type of pot ever made.....

I bought one about 6 months ago from there. It's pot nirvana.....

Mainly price and weight.

I want a 500mm long pot. Should cost about $8-10 and about 300g.

Same size ceramic pot would be about $200 and 2-3 kg.

I won't be able to measure mine for a few days but I'm pretty sure it's at least 400. I'm not going to say that they have bigger ones because I can't remember but I do remember they have a hell of a lot of stuff.

Maybe give them a call (02) 9723 2688. Not sure how good thier english will be though.

Either way this place is well worth a look in terms of pots in general.

I'll let you know the exact size of mine. When I get a chance....
