Homenote 200 Pcs 4 Inch Plastic Plant Labels Waterproof Plant Tags for Seedling,Vegetable Gardening Tags,Garden Markers Outdoor for Plants Name Sign with Permanet Marking Pen,White

I kept having these tags wash off with other markers. Reviews of this product said this pen actually works so I gave it a try, and it absolutely does work properly. I have had tags out in the sun and torrential Minnesota rain this year and they look good as new. I will use this till it runs out, then order it again.

These met 3 factors.....good price for amount, sturdy, easy to buy, best I have found online for 3” labels

I grow quite a few veggies and herbs in my basement, and use these labels for the potted plants and for labeling pots planted with seeds. For pots planted with seeds, I write the plant species on one side and the date I planted the seeds on the other side. When I transplant the seedlings into their own pots, I use these labels to keep this information with each plant. This has been so very useful in knowing the age of the plants and how long they live. For example, I have a tub of kale that was planted in October of 2018, so these kale plants are almost 4 years old and still producing.One thing I like about these labels is that they are reusable. You can use the supplied pen, but Sharpie fine point markers also work very well. To reuse the labels, you can clean them with either alcohol or a Brillo soap pad. Since these labels are so inexpensive, I don't always take the time to clean them, but sometimes I do. I also like that they are wide enough to write two-line labels on them. This leaves plenty of label length to be stuck in the soil and still see the entire written label. I also very much like that the written label does not wash off with watering. In the case of my kale, the label has lasted almost 4 years so far.I would definitely recommend these labels as they are reusable, long enough they don't get lost in the pot, and the width does not get in the way of lower leaves on plants. Even on larger spreading plants, the labels don't get lost.I hope this review was helpful for you.

I bought this just for the tags for labeling my seedlings. The pen was just an extra, but it didn't work great for me. The pen was pretty dried out and I ended up using a sharpie I had on hand. But the pen not working great shouldn't deter you from these tags, because these tags are sturdy and nice quality that I can use season after season.

I really like the size and shape of these plant markers for use in my seed starting setup. They're just the right size for seedling pots. I ordered a second round of them I liked them so much.
