Do you have a preference of the two?

Last year I only used milk jugs and loved the ease of use. This year I ran out of milk jugs and had to start using 2 liter bottles. I grouched about how much more time the prep seemed to take and how little the sowing area seemed to be compared to the milk jugs. Then I realized how much better the germination seemed to be in the 2 liters. I also noticed how reusable the 2 liters were. I'm not willing to give up my beloved milk jugs completely but 2 liters have now earned a place in my winter sowing.
