So I'm still without a solid plan for how to grow my plants in my new greenhouse.


I'm looking for a cost effective way, and really haven't settled on anything. I can't seem to find 7 gallon pots for a decent price, As of right now I have about 140 seedlings. I may thin that a bit, and possibly transplant some outside later on, but 140 7 gallon pots just isn't going to be cheap it seems.

I've looked a bit at fabric pots, but they still seem pretty pricey for what they are.

My backup plan was to make wooden planter boxes. But now I see lumber is really, really high currently. I can probably scavenge wood from skids and crates to supplement, but I still do not have a good idea of what to build, size, etc.


Regardless of the method, I also need some form of tables!. Not sure on that either!! My best guess so far is probably cement blocks, 2x4's and connectable plastic shelf panels.

Interested in hearing ideas for cost effective- or any- ways to support this amount of plants.
