I was thinking about making net pots out of something like yogurt containers. What do you think? How far apart should I space them if I'm planning on growing assorted greens? Those include mustard, Kale and collards.

You can make some out of drain leaf guards and polystyrene from bunnings for about $5 a pop.

You can buy a hundred of them for about $10 on ebay. Ive seen quite a lot of members use yogurt cups, they seem to work well.

I have a single raft that is about 2ft. / 2.5ft. that is made of 1.5" foam board insulation.
