Default Seedling growing containers.

What do you grow your young adolescent plants in?
I have tried everything and have came up with something that works for me.
It is unorthodox and a little pricey but it works and works very well.
Not only that they last forever if you dont break them.
With normal wood working skills you can use a hole saw and make trays for the to sit in.
They are easy to sterilize and you can see the roots.
The sunlight doesn't bother the roots either.
Each one holds 14.5 cubic inches of soil.
You can see how moist the soil is.
They are 1/2 pint canning jars with 1/2 holes drilled in the bottom with a drill press and a diamond hole saw.
There are 45 in this pictuer.
