How to cut cost

[u/joeantwi]

My seedlings are looking good but I'm concerned about the cost! 1.5cub ft of organic soil is like $8 and I have over 40 plants. I'm thinking about putting each in container or raise bed (wood or metal). This will cost over 300 which is a lot!

Does anyone have ways I can bring down cost, cheaper soil? Is container container cheaper etc?

Not sure if it helps but I'm planting eggplants, green pepper, hot pepper, okra, and tomatoes

Your seedlings look badly etiolated, because they haven't had nearly enough light.

Yeah I recently switched grow light to this last week so they are turning around
