hello is there a way of stopping plastic plant pots sticking together

Yes - put them away dirty, still with some soil attached in them ( don't mean an inch at the bottom, tip most of it out, just don't clean them). Means you have to wash them before you re-use, but at least they don't stick so easily when stored.

I was just about to say exactly the opposite, Bamboo :-))).
If the pots are the same size, clean and dry then they should not stick together - my experience!

Ha ha, well what I'm saying above is my experience - I used to wash them all religiously before storing, and then found I couldn't separate the blasted things...

I store mine one inside the other but lay them on their sides. That way you don't have the ones at the bottom bearing all the weight and being jammed together. It works for me.

That's good too but my shelves aren't wide enough.

Doesn't save any work really Noseypotter - just means you have to clean them when you actually want to use them again;-)
