5-Cell Handheld Soil Blocker

Ingenious in design, soil blockers compress the growing medium to form blocks that hold their shape. These blocks can then be seeded or transplanted into. This offers many benefits to the grower: Reduces the need for plastic trays Decreases likelihood of transplants becoming rootbound, as increased air flow between blocks "air prunes" roots Creates healthier, more vigorous transplants due to oxygenated roots Reduces transplant shockDeveloped in conjunction with Eliot Coleman.
