My favorite seed starter is a clear plastic 64 oz. juice bottle. Drill
holes in the bottom and in the sides near the top. If you cut a mouth
wash bottle in half, it makes a good funnel for the soil. Cut the juice

idiot-proof.
Well idiots are extremely clever, I can vouch for that.

I cut around most of the juice bottle about 4" from the bottle,
leaving just a little that I can hinge back. That makes it easy to
hinge back and add the soil and seeds. I then seal the bottle with
duct tape until the seedlings are ready to get used to the outdoors.
Then I take the tape off and let it hinge back more and more with
time.
