Want to share the insane idea I manifested last year and just filled this year. I took a 4 foot by 8 foot trailer and converted it to a mobile green house. The floor has slots for the trays I use. The sides are plywood, the top is plastic over two by fours. Top comes off on a good day, goes back ontop overnight.
Because we have horrible wind this time of the year and for transporting to market, I can take the top off and lay a single piece of plywood on top. Because it is on wheels, I can push it into the garage or barn if we are getting a really horrible storm.
It fits about 200 plants in solo cups. Best part, since I am not getting around too well, I can hook it to my truck and bring it to the row where I am planting. No more back and forth with plants and trays, just park where I need to plant.
Kind of taking a break from filling it. Wife is away getting feed, so I can sneak off the couch. If I get it filled, will post pictures of this year's load.
This is last year with mostly tomato plants. Photo was taken right after a serious frost. Almost all survived. Its not perfect, but really improves how many plants I can start each year by letting me move out early and start a new batch of things that dont take as long.
