WOW Cool.
I can't cover anything here in Florida if you do half a day turns to mush. I never have to cover I'm glad.
Your very creative MsC. When and how big are they before they come out to the real world :)) Do you oepn a little at a time ?
I grow all my leaves in 3 oz. cups in extremly light soil-less mixture. in clear plastic boxes. which can be cleaned and bleached and last for years !
I use to have them last winder in closed mini green houes but they all just stood there until spring. This winter I put everything under lights I could fit and everything grew so fast.
Now I use my greenhouse for isulation.
But here is a picture of at least how I set them. Works well for me . Best thing is to experiment and see whats best for you and your enviroment !
