Default Need 5" pots for my Gros Michels

I just ordered some Gros Michels from Agristart and I need to get some pots before they get here. Can anyone direct me to somewhere either online or in San Diego to buy 5x5 inch pots, or there abouts?

I'd like to go a little bigger than just 4" pots and I've only found a couple places. One is an older man with an online mail order store, no phone number and just an email address.

the other is ebay, but they are I think 4 1/2" pots.

any suggestions would be helpful,
thanks
Larry

Craigslist?
About 5 years ago I got some free ones from a nursery in Blossom Valley, but have no left. You might want to check there or with some nurseries in the Encinitas/Solana Beach area. Maybe a PM to Richard?

Any landscaping business that has nursery pots laying around.. You might just do them a favor by picking them up if they store them.. :^)

4" or even smaller will be fine for the TC'S

If you want to go larger may as well get 1gal. usually $.25 each on craigslist
