Spent the day playing around with little bolts to put this together. Should extend my growing window by a month, won’t be able to extend end of season I think though.

I've had mine going for three years and they seem to be holding up as well as the cheap poly grow pots, so woo. I keep my starts in a tray to keep the extra water and keep the bottoms moist if I miss a watering.

I’ll likely do something like that in the cold frame, swamp watering or bottom watering does have some advantages! It’s so dry here I don’t think the solo cups will last a whole day.
