>> I replanted some lettuce seeds today because the seed is old and didn't germinate. Most of it is coming up really well. I have three plug trays of 288.

You inspired me to pick up some plug trays with smaller cells than I've ever used before - 200 square cells with 1" tops, 2" deep. That's a 10x20 array of cells.

If I learn to plant out from them before seedlings get root-bound, maybe some day I'll try a 12x24 tray with 288 cells!

How many days after emergence can you leave a lettuce seedling in a cell that small, before it's root bound? 3/4" square?
