Propagation pots and seed trays are essential equipment for raising seedlings. Lightweight, thin-walled containers allow you to sow seeds, then prick out the seedlings and grow young plants until they are transplanted to their permanent location.
What you will find in this category
Seed trays - with 12, 24, 54 or 84 cells. The more cells there are, the smaller each cell is: large trays are suitable for small vegetable and flower seeds, while smaller ones are suitable for palm and banana seeds.
6 cm Garland seedling pots - a set of 40 for pricking out seedlings.
7×7×7 cm propagation pots - square 0.34 l pots that can be placed closely together on a tray or windowsill.
How to use
Sow the seeds in a tray, and when the seedlings produce their first true leaf, prick them out into pots. Drainage holes in the bottom remove excess water, so it is worth placing the containers on a tray.
You can find trays, propagators and covers in the pots and covers category.
