Already have drainage holes and a built in little greenhouse lid. Once the seedlings sprout, I cut off the lids. My friends save these for me, and I save them myself all winter. I'm all about planting on the cheap! For seedling mix, I use my own compost plus a brick of coir fiber that I get from Downtown Home & Garden -- usually makes the perfect amount in a 50/50 ratio. I'm posting some pix on facebook. <br /><br />With your cinderblock edges, I would think it'd be super simple & cheap to create some hoops over your beds with PVC or copper pipe and some plastic!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11489261419789940650noreply@blogger.com
