Hemp propagation is in full swing in the USA and our 128 cell tray is fast proving to be an excellent and popular choice. With sales now in several States, hemp growers are taking advantage of the easy to use, tough injection-moulded plastic design that produces very high quality, easy to pull plants.
As our trays last for many, many years they can be financed or leased if you require a large amount for your nursery which can help to improve cash flow.
For more information and all the benefits, see our 128 cell tray product page.

Hoss Tools have created a nice little video that showcases our 162 cell vegetable propagation tray and explains how to pull transplants and how to tell when they are ready to be planted out.

We are delighted that our distributors Greenhouse Megastore can now supply even more of our popular propagation products. As with the other Proptek trays they already stock, this allows us to supply trays in smaller quantities and also brings on board the expertise of this very well known brand to help support our customers in product selection and fulfilment.

It’s common knowledge that tough plastic trays last longer than Styrofoam, so represent a better return on investment…but there’s another sometimes more hidden saving.
A hard plastic tray is better on fertilizer than a Styrofoam tray. This is because of two main reasons:
• The roots are better, so take up nutrients more efficiently. This means less goodness runs through the cell and is lost down the drain.
• Nutrients can’t absorb into the cell walls.
When you combine these two facts, you can reduce the amount of fertilizer and nutrient management you have to do, creating a large net saving. There is good…

Save time on Seeding and Filling
A tough injection molded container can be de-stacked automatically a lot easier than other types of tray….
