Rootrainers Compact Haxnicks
Compact Rapid Rootrainers have a cell depth of 8cm but have fewer cells than Rapid Rootrainers (with 20 as opposed to 32 cells) and have been hailed as an extremely user friendly addition with all the features of the Original Rootrainers incorporated into a compact module.
Grooves encourage more roots and direct them straight down. Ideal for bedding, container and vegetable plants. Cells open like a book for easy transplanting .
The secret of Rootrainers success – Better roots mean better plants every time
20 cells (5 books), Tray: 24cm x 22cm x 9cm, 1 Lid
Instructions:
Fold books in half and place all books one by one tightly together in the tray, then lightly dampen.
Using good multipurpose moist compost – pile compost over tray and brush it into side and corner cells.
Give tray a bump to settle compost into the bottom of cells. Top-up if necessary.
Brush off any excess compost to reveal the cell tops.
Add a little water with a watering can fitted with a rose.
Air pruning: the first roots race down the special grooves and quickly emerge through the drainage holes. The tips die off naturally causing masses of side roots to develop higher in the cell. This results in a super root system all set to feed a perfect plant.
Rootrainers encourage optimum root formation: including strong roots; a fundamental requirements of healthy and successful growth. The rectangular shape of each plant cell provides a greater surface area and the grooves allow more roots to develop on the outside of the plug
