Bootstrap Farmer 72 Cell Air Prune Tray, 10 Pack, Extra Strength Air Pruner Seed Starting Tray

Really good quality and works very well

The tray is super sturdy and the side slits keep the roots growing evenly and eliminate water saturation. The bottom holes are a little too big, but I use a 2x2 inch paper towel at the bottom to keep soil in.

After years of ruining lettuce flats trying to get the plant plugs out, then ruining lettuce plugs trying to reuse the damaged flats, I needed a more durable solution. We start indoors in 20x10 flat trays, so I wanted something that would nest in these efficiently.These "72 Cell Air Prune Trays" are perfect! They're thick, so as long as they're not brittle they should hold up with years of use. They have large holes at the bottom to make transplanting easier. And maybe the air pruning slits will be helpful, but honestly I would have bought them even if they weren't air pruning.The trick with these looks to be filling them. The large holes at the bottom and the gaps between cells promise to dump a lot of potting soil without some sort of a plan to fill them. My current idea is to place one tray on a flat surface to cover the bottom holes, then pour soil over the surface (some spilling between the cells), and use a second tray to press gently and compact the soil. Then transfer the soil-filled tray to a 20x10. We'll see if this works next spring!

Got tired of pressing hundreds ofSoil blocks.This products makes easy plugs that hold together and are easy to water. Will be ordering more!

Excellent seed tray I love it really durable and way better than those cheap plastic seed starters.

Edit: After accidentally leaving 1 tray in direct sunlight through summer and through below freezing temperatures, I am sold this is the only cell tray I will ever purchase.They work as intended. They seem sturdy and ready for years of use.

Well made trays. I look forward to using them this season!
