I am a big fan of soil blocks, and I find that a meager two inch block grows and supports a 12 - 16 inch tomato plant just fine, and transplanting into the garden is a snap. Lately I have been combining the dense planting germination method with soil blocks. I start the seeds with Craig's dense planting method, then when I pot up, I unceremoniously mash the little seedlings into the 3/4" cavity in my 2" blocks, where they thrive until plant out. I like the space saved, and I love not having to buy or search for plastic or any other kind of pots.
