I found this the other day and thought I should share it. Homemade Biodegradable Seed Starters from Toilet Paper Tubes...
All you have to do is cut a toilet paper tube in half (or a paper towel tube in quarters or maybe more) and fill it with potting soil, then use as you would normally use a seed starter. Simple...easy...and best of all, FREE! Thanks goes to NW Edible for the idea! :)
So after trying this...I DO NOT recommend it. Once wet the glue released and created a mess. They fell completely apart. I guess you could put tape around them and then take it off when you transplant but I would just recommend using something else. Sorry if any of you already tried it.

I've tried similar seed starters (paper egg cartons, etc.) and they never worked very well. Rubber bands might work to hold them together if you used quite a few on each one!
I agree, but since they spiral down I don't know how well they would work
