Modifying flats

I prefer to use ordinary window screen, not only for flats but to
place inside the bottom of the Anderson band pots to keep the soil
from falling out. Bulbs seem to love the band pots with screen in the
bottom as it improves drainage, and it gives some air circulation to
the bottom of the potting mix without letting it dry out too quickly.
And it's nice to look at all the happy little roots coming out
through the screen.

Well, yes, but cutting up hundreds of little squares of screen would
take a long time.
