LB--this is the first time I've used peat cells for germinating--when you transplant them do you just leave the seedling in them. Or peel the sides off? Or just open the bottom? The package didn't have directions. Just like toilet paper. Go figure. :-| The white fungus turned out to be a non-problem, as you said. Thanks, Riley I used peat cells this year, however my packaging had instructions. I just transplanted the whole cell as is, no cutting or boring ;-) Seems to work fine, got a whole bunch of seedlings growing away. Mike
