Abstract
Continuously assembled pots, configured in square or hexagonal cylinders for raising and transplanting seedlings are formed by developing non-adhered portions of a band, which is formed by adhering two sheets of film such as paper or the like. The portion of the band corresponding to a connector portion which connects the pots is folded at a given length, and has an elongated or unfolded length larger than the width of one side of a pot. The folded portion of the band is adhered to itself and to a pot with a water soluble paste, so that the continuously assembled pots are separated by water during raising and pulled out continuously from one end thereof in a line.
