I made labels for the flats in the evenings, listening to Rob and books or movies. The solo cups were easy to do, just count the seedlings in each cell of that variety, write on the cups for that many ( already drilled cups) and scoop some loose mix in them, and poke the babies in. Also, when planting for good, cut the cup label off - a quick wedge shape, make a hole and I had the plant label for there, too.

I'm not all that organized as you are, lol, and the sheets of print would get wet and blur, I'm a messy gardener!!
