I usually prefer to use smallish transplants so they grow into their space. I also don't have enough light inside to get things going well, so I have to delay seeding in the transplants.
But, here are some of the containers that I just planted as a demo video. I'm still editing.
1) Growing onions out for seed with parsley and kale in my random weave basket
2) Chives in a coffee can
3) Garden sage and hen and chicks in a broken bucket
4) Sweet Bay and thyme in a goodwill find
5) Wild strawberries and chives in a refrigerator veg tray.
It will be fun watching them develop and fill in.
