Actually this is so easy, no sacrifice at all, but a great help to some who haven't got the hang of germinating food plants or don't have the place to do it. Have you checked the prices of starters in the big box stores lately?
Nope, and I don't want to either :-) I got lucky a couple of years ago and snapped up some four foot "gro-light" adjustable height fixtures for $10 each, that are now selling for $60 or more in the catalogs. Walmart had bought a bunch of them and they didn't sell, so they put them out at this ridiculous price. I haven't bought starter plants in years, except for four tomatoes I got this year at a fiber festival. They were an heirloom variety that I had thought about planting but then decided not to buy the seed, so I was happy to pay for the plants. I'll save the seed this year and have my own next year.
