Time to show your grow.

They have wire racks like that at Menards. Or something similar. They are stackers for your closet. I'm sure they would work. They are very study.
i use those Solo cups too. After poking a hole in the bottom they work great for veggie seeds and other types. Sometimes I use the small clear ones. You can see the roots develope. It's kinda interesting. Doesn't take much to amuse me..lol.😃😃😃
 
Yeah oldjarhead100, i was surprised too. I just did it on a whim thinking of air pruning and drainage. Seeds are bagseed so not sure if they are boys or girls. But just germinated until i saw taproot then put directly into the coco. The "Holy" cup dries out faster so i have to water it more but i think that's what is making it grow slightly faster.
 
Morning GardenLady I've never tried clear for my weed seeds I've been told weed roots don't like light so those solo cups are great. Once I tried using those "cow pots" made from manure they were soo hot it fried my tomato starts, you ever seen those or tried them? I wouldn't use them for weed starting at all. FYI It's pretty darn cold here with the breeze feels like in the 30s but still got my one plant 7ft. bent all up folded branches moving from spot to spot. She's sitting on the back porch catching 3hrs of sunshine now there......looking like a turkey harvest LOL
 
SoOrbudgal. On the Supersoil web site, they suggest starting the seed in a mix of the super soil and conventional soil and give a demonstration. They do it in clear solocups...BUT that is for the purpose of monitoring the root development in the cup. However, that clear cup is placed inside a color cup and that cup blocks the light. When you wish to check out the root development, you lift out the clear, take a peek and then drop it back inside the other cup as a sleeve. I’ll bet it’s fun to watch those roots invade the cup.
 
I do something similar, but with old baby food jars. I think I posted it on the forum "somewhere". I make tubes of construction paper to slip over the jars to keep out the unwanted light. Tubes easily slip off for monitoring. I use this method mainly for clones where root development is more critical.
