containers for sowing

Anyone have any suggestions for containers I can use to grow some bananas from seeds? I am going to start them indoors and can't find any of those small cheap plastic starter pots at the store. I was thinking about using solo cups, but I thought they might crack...

Re: containers for sowing

Thanks Tony. Do you poke any holes in the bottom for drainage? If so, what do you use?

I Heat Up A Punch And Burn In The Holes. It's Probably Not Good For Your Health.if You Can Find A Paper Puch Deep Enough That Should Work.

I just use a sharp pencil to make the holes - or a knife to make slits.

Soon I am going to be growing my first banana plant from seed! I am so excited, but must be patient while waiting for the seeds to arrive...
