Seed tray to pots covered in mesh to separate pots when 3 inches tall....covered with mesh again til 6 inches tall.... Protect from birds, rats, insects, wind, rain.... Move around pots constantly...labour intensive....This is what the 5$ is paying for and you people think they come with the pots and soil????

There's actually not a lot of need to get defensive - nobody, NOBODY mentioned ceramic pots or hard plastic containers. At most I'd expect a 2c plastic tube, or even just a rootball of earth. You showed photos in your OP but that isn't what you're selling - so it's not unfair for people to either assume you're selling what you showed in a photo, or to ask questions. "...you people think they come with the pots and soil?" - well, yeah, like every other plant I've bought in my life, but yours are clearly different, so ... bless.
