SEED STARTING
- Propagators are found in a range of sizes and shapes to suite. They include self-watering, heated systems and aerogrow.
- Jiffy pots, plastic pots and trays for raising seeds and cuttings, transplanting, and growing on, along with the paper pot maker.
- Rootrainers are deep, ridged modules that air-prune roots. They open like a book for you to periodically observe and finally remove the well-rooted plug.
