Budget 8-Cell Seedling Tray
The Efficient Modular Solution for High-Density Seed Raising.
The Budget 8-Cell Seedling Tray is a specialised tool for gardeners who prioritise high-density propagation and meticulous organisation. With an overall capacity of 0.211 litres, this compact tray is perfectly suited for germinating small seeds in distinct batches, providing a professional and space-efficient environment for the earliest stages of plant development.
Advanced Modular Integration
Engineered to function as a core component of a larger growing system, these trays offer exceptional flexibility for the greenhouse or backyard nursery:
Full-Size Trays: Ten of these 8-cell units fit perfectly into the full-size budget perforated or non-perforated bottom trays.
Half-Size Trays: For smaller projects, five units fit neatly into the half-size perforated bottom tray.
Bottom-Watering Ready: When used in conjunction with a solid bottom tray, these units facilitate efficient moisture wicking from the base. This ensures the root zone remains consistently hydrated without the risk of washing away delicate surface seeds.
Key Features and Benefits
Precision Cell Architecture: Each cell features a 55mm depth and a tapered design (narrowing to 20mm x 15mm at the base), which encourages roots to grow downwards and makes the extraction of young seedlings straightforward and stress-free.
Durable and Safe Construction: Manufactured from rigid, BPA-free black plastic, these trays are safe for starting edible crops and robust enough to be cleaned and reused season after season.
Sustainable Life Cycle: Made from high-quality polypropylene (PP or “5”), the trays are easily recyclable, supporting an eco-friendly approach to home horticulture.
Organised Batch Management
The 8-cell configuration is a favourite for those who sow a wide variety of herbs or flowers simultaneously. It allows for easy separation and labelling of different species, ensuring that even the busiest potting shed remains orderly and productive.
