I'm on the hunt for websites or stores in Canada that sell clear nursery pots. I'm particularly interested in larger pots suitable for my monstera but could also use some medium-sized ones. I'm open to using clear containers that I could drill my own drainage holes into, if necessary. Any suggestions?

I ordered from this site called Wavy Leaf; they offer a 3-pack of clear pots. They even have taller versions which are great for deeper decorative pots.
Have you checked out Lee Valley or Ravenvision Orchid supplies? Also, visiting local garden centers could yield some good options. If you do a quick search for orchid supplies in Canada, you'll find more places to look!
You might want to check out restaurant equipment stores—they often carry sturdy clear food storage containers that you can easily drill holes into for drainage.
I haven't come across clear nursery pots before. What's the advantage of using them? I have a big monstera outside that I'm thinking about propagating in a clear pot. Does it really make a difference?
Some people, including myself, love using clear pots because they let us monitor root growth and catch root rot before it's too late. Plus, if you're worried about aesthetics, just pop the clear pots into decorative ones to hide them!
