Seed and Plant Propagation
Sowing seed into trays and pots makes better use of the seed as germination seems more successful and so less seed is wasted. This can be an important factor as many packets of hybrid seeds contain very few expensive seeds. Cost cannot really be the driving force though as the saving on seed is offset by the need to buy compost etc. It is important however, to have as high a percentage successful germination as possible if there is only a sprinkling of seed in a packet. When sowing into pots or trays rather than into open ground it is easier to control the number of seed sown. Sowing directly into the soil often results in seed germinating in clumps and gaps being left in the row. Click here to read more

Capillary matting Capillary matting allows the process of capillary watering to occur, which provides plants with water through the base of their containers, via the natural capillary action of the compost. The matting can be used with our staging trays to deliver water evenly over the whole area. When used with our Water Tub reservoir or our Big Drippa watering system plants can be kept watered for long periods. Matting can be used either way up; the dark grey side hides soil spills and attracts the sun's warmth in the cooler months; the white side will reflect more light, particularly beneficial for light sensitive plants in the height of summer.
