very nice system Craig!

I use cheap vinyl blinds for plant labels (I can usually get
my hands on used ones for free). I cut each strip into 5 inch sections for individual labels. I assign the task of writing the names on the labels to my kids for 'handwriting practice'.

I don't acclimate my plants until after I've transplanted them into the 4 inch pots. I like the idea of hardening off the seedlings while still in the flats. I'm going to try that. During cold spells, I slide the trays containing 15 4-inch pots under mini-greenhouses constructed by covering concrete wire 'hoops' with plastic.
