I like the idea of growing seeds in jiffy 7s, however the cheapest I can

Any thoughts, comments or experience on them?

I just grow mine in 3 inch pots. I found the jiffies useless - always
drying out and not rotting down in the ground when it was one plant to
one pot. Sowing seeds is my favourite occupation and its great to see
if/when they germinate - all perennials by the way. Just found a
potful of seedlings under their cover on the top of the boiler housing
behind the microwave. Just thought I'd share some of my exciting life
with you. Now have to wait and see what they are; probably something
horrible as they were only sown 3 days ago. The packet said
'distributors mix'. Yes, sorry, I do tend to waffle. Diana
