• wherein the planter pot is defined by an outer surface comprising a water-resistant silicon layer coating;
• and
• wherein the planter pot is biodegradable;
• planting the planter pot in the ground or in the soil;
• whereby the starch bottom face and sidewalls of the planter pot biodegrade, and the plant grows.
