Similarly, you may ask, are plastic pots bad for plants?
Plastic pots are lightweight, strong and flexible. Plastic does not have the wicking action that clay has making them an excellent choice for moisture-loving plants or for those gardeners who water infrequently. Plastic pots are made of inert materials and are considered safe for growing plants.
Can you reuse old potting soil?
Ways to Reuse Potting Soil Simply remove old plants from their containers, fluff up the soil and replant. If you've reused the same soil for several years or it's developed a white surface crust, you may have to cut it with 50 percent new potting soil and/or apply fertilizer.
