TS-48F Seedling Tray

The TS-48 seedling tray is a popular choice among forest nurseries and and farm foresters due to several benefits: 

• Compact design: It is a smaller tray, making it ideal for those with limited space or who need to start a smaller number of seedlings.

• Easy to handle: The tray is lightweight and easy to move around, making it convenient for both indoor and outdoor use. 

• Cost-effective: The tray offers good value for money, considering its durability and performance. 

• Versatility: It can be used for a wide range of plants, including vegetables, herbs, and flowers. 

• Promotes healthy root growth: The tray's cell design encourages the development of strong and healthy roots.  

• Air Root pruning: does an excellent job of training a root system with a mass of young natural and active secondary roots

• Automation: Designed to work with modern tray dispencers, tray filling machines, seeders, and bench loading systems.  

Originally developed by Transplant Systems New Zealand for Radiata pine cuttings, the TS-48F cellular seedling growing tray is ideally suited for softwood cuttings and seed. The architecture of the TS-48F forestry tray cell, is the product of years of research and development with major forest nurseries and plantation growers throughout Australia and New Zealand. It has proven to be very popular and is used around Australasia, as well as being exported to forestry nurseries in Uganda and Papua New Guinea.

The trays are made from HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) virgin resin with UV protection.

When inspecting cuttings ready for planting it will be seen that the aggressive roots have been controlled in the cell thus avoiding the chance of root deformity. This leads to excellent field anchorage, early establishment, and plant growth.
