Jane McGary mentioned plastic mesh pots. The plastic mesh pots I've seen for sale are relatively expensive - the lowest price I've seen is about $2 per pot. That may be a fair price, but if you need several hundred... Does anyone know of a source for the plastic baskets which used to be used for strawberries? I Googled for these recently without finding them. If they are still made, they should be a lot less expensive - and I need lots of them.
