Julie, did I miss your "special" way of cutting milk jugs??? Pictures please!! Legit

Here are some of mine.
I find it best to put the jugs directly on the ground so you can take advantage of the natural moisture. BTW, the open ones are from the previous year, when dealing with Peonies, trees, shrubs, clematis, you often don't get germination the first year, and these I keep over, often I am rewarded the following season with seedlings.

The tubs are me saving the soil mix for next year, when it's outside it doesn't matter if it's sterile. Weed seeds bother some, but it just sharpens your seedling identification when you need to decide what to pull and what to keep!!
