I've used a similar labeler for breaker boxes and the stickers, while good enough, could be easily scraped off the box and I'd be concerned using it for long periods outdoors, especially if the glue isn't waterproof

I've been thinking about changing how i do labels because i just do the window blinds and pencil, sometimes sharpie but sharpie fades fast, and I'm thinking maybe i should get a china marker because i just got about a dozen specialty mints I'd like to keep track of

I cut up white plastic bottles and write on them with soft pencil, works pretty well. This year I grew my tomatoes in white paper cups with holes punched in the bottom and wrote the variety on the cup. When I upgraded them to larger containers I half buried the cups so the name still shows and use them for watering.
