I also like the little 2” square pots.  That way I can tip the plant/pot upside down and slide the plant out.

Subject: [Market-farming] Starting Squash

 

I started starting summer and winter squash in large peat pots several years ago. It seemed to be the only way I could have reasonable transplant success.

I've seem to be hearing that other people have success transplanting squash started in 50's plastic trays.

Boy, would that same me a lot of time, potting soil and dollars!

Anyone have luck doing squash transplants from 'small' cell plastic trays? And cucumbers, too?

Thanks
