I like your new trays they seem like they will do the job nicely...I will be following your progress as you post, friend, thank you kindly for sharing your knowledge💙💙💙
Getting alot of tomatoes going over there. It has been forever since I grew the Solar Flare and miss it. We have a good/bad relationship with those Burpee trays over here but can work really well. Lots of cool types. Thanks for the share!
Not major issues to be sure and perhaps from our unique grow situation but our green tray has caused some sprouts to fall out from the heat mat I think. I would say if you notice the new seedlings start to look off it might be worth a try of taking them from the heat mat. We also got a 36 cell blue tray this year from Burpee and it seems to be working alot better. It does have the pods elevated a bit off the bottom too. May be a non issue and hoping to do a video on them someday after had for a season or two. @@Onniesprairiegarden
You can certainly do that I just would not recommend it for starting seeds indoors if you can help it. Sometimes dirt can be very dense and not be good for draining. Also, the lack of nutrients for your new seedlings. You want them off to a really good start. And then lastly there might be weed seeds in your soil to contend with. At Walmart, you can get some jiffy for $6. I think that's pretty affordable.

Can I just use dirt from the yard to start or will that be a waste. I'm trying to save money as much as possible and get creative this year.
