Germination Trays

Germination trays are essential in every nursery and used in gardening and horticulture to germinate seeds and root cuttings. These trays provide an optimal environment for both seedlings and cuttings to establish healthy, vigorous root systems before transplanting. Designed with effective drainage, the cavities enhance the germination and rooting processes and are widely used by gardening enthusiasts, commercial growers and nurseries. Manufactured from HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene), these trays provide a cost-effective solution to growing thousands of plants with the best results.

To accommodate different requirements, they are available in two sizes: a 128-cavity tray for smaller seeds and cuttings, and a 45-cavity tray for larger seeds and cuttings. Both sizes are available in bundles of 10 or cartons of 100.

• Enhanced Root Development: Germination trays have cells that allow individual seeds to grow separately. This prevents root entanglement and promotes healthier root development, resulting in stronger and more robust seedlings.

• Easy Transplantation: The smooth surfaces provided by the HIPS plastic allow for easy extraction of the seedlings, resulting in no damage or stress to the young plants, leading to higher survival rates when transferring seedlings to larger containers or garden beds.

• Space Efficiency: Germination trays are space-saving solutions, enabling gardeners to efficiently utilize limited gardening areas. They are stackable and ‘nest’, so they don’t take up much storage space. They can be placed on top of heating mats or in clone domes, making them ideal for professional nurserymen, gardens, balconies or indoor gardening setups.
