Georgesr.
I also researched these for my small (12X12) greenhouse used primarily for seed starting. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have a grain of clay on my property - just sand. I'd be real interested in seeing what you end up with and how it works for you. I was going to do it this past summer, but just ran out of time - too many tomatoes!
Merry Christmas and/or happy holidays to you all!
