Once in a great while I get lazy and buy,when on sale, the already roasted chickens at our supermarket. I found that the plastic container they come in make perfect greenhouses and are reusable. I put a couple of holes in the bottom,fill with potting soil, place on an old cookie sheet and cover with the top which already has vent holes which originally kept the chicken from getting soggy. There is just the right amount of condensation to keep the soil moist when placed in a sunny spot.. Once the seeds have sprouted I remove the cover and when the plants are large enough, transplant individually, or if the weather is warm, right into the garden. The photo shows my Zinnia's up and tomatoes in another few days.
