The secret to growing stocky, vigorous seedlings that thrive when transplanted outdoors is a strong root mass. The tapered cells of these trays are 50% deeper than similar seed trays which means more room for root mass.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

When APS units were first introduced, I did not like the fact that they were constructed with styrofoam cells. Those were hard to clean and seemed to attract mold. These sturdy deep cells can be washed easily (even in the dishwasher!) and have more room for planting medium. I love them!

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

These are much sturdier than the usual trays and will likely be reusable for many years. The hole in the bottom is large enough to push out the seedings with a finger. I covered the holes with a small square of paper towel when I filled the trays with germinating mix. These trays are smaller in width and height than usual (which worked out better for me anyway), but they have significantly deeper cells giving more room for the roots to spread out. Transplanting was much easier this year.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

the trays have large holes in the bottom but that is ok. I put 100% pure cotton round pads in the bottom. you can buy at [...] a hundred count for under two dollars. they are real thin and about the size of a half dollar. women use them to remove makeup. to remove the plants just push your finger up through the bottom and it comes out easy. also I just leave the cotton on the roots and plant it with it still on. the roots grow through it.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

I used my deep root tray with a glass 9x13 and elevated out of water and used the grow mat and it worked fine since the greenhouse is no longer available. Held plenty of water for once a week watering and the plants grew great. Because of some post about how the seedlings were hard to remove from the deep root green house (no longer for sell), I used a thin strip of paper towel to help hold the dirt in when seed first started and also to help me remve plants when ready to plant in garden. The strips of paper towel worked perfectly and the plants came out with roots growing through the paper towel and no falling apart of the dirt when pushing out of the cells. I just wish they would bring the greenhouse back.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

These are great trays. Durable, reuseable, made of hard plastic. Wells are deep enough to grow deep roots, even on quick growing seeds like cucumbers and zinnias. Only downside is that they are not the same size as standard 10x20 flats, so you have to create your own catch pan. I'd definitely recommend them.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

This is the sturdiest seed starting tray that I have. I should never have to replace it. It is used in the deep-root system, but it also fits in the 13 x 15 Perma-nest trays. It is also easy to clean. I haven't tried running it through the dishwasher (for sterilizing), but I may try just to see how it works.

I purchased this to increase the seed production in the matching system. I was not disappointed. The nice thing is it is easy to switch out the sizes. And, if you have one up and running that is ready to take out and harden to the elements you can just pop it out. Then it is ready to start another tray.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

I bought this product after I had started my seeds, but I used the larger celled tray to transplant my tomato seedlings. I have more tomatoes than cells, so some stayed in regular pots. The 30 I planted into the 2 seed starting trays with the self-watering base are much larger then the others. I am very impressed with the results. I can't wait to see how it works when I start seeds in the trays and use the dome tops.

I transplant all my warm season vegetables and bedding plants into these trays. They develop an incredible root system. I start my seedlings under florescent lights here in Chicago, and these trays are real space savers, allowing me to fit many times more plants under the lights.

Finally I hate to use flimsy pots that are hard to recycle. These are made of thick plastic and have lasted me 3 seasons so far without any signs of failing.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

I absolutely love this product. I purchased 3 of the Deep Root systems and decided I had to have more. The seeds I started in this unit are doing better than the ones started in other containers, including one I purchased for another mail order company. The only thing I do not like is that the system only comes with the 15 cell tray. This tray is very good but I only use it for cuttings and I mostly grow seeds. I wish you had your choice of 15, 28 or 40 cell tray when you purchased the unit.

These deep root cells on top of a capillary mat give roots the opportunity to grow abundantly and without stress.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

I plan to order more of these and use them with my APS starters. Better root system with these and far more durable than the styrofoam APS starting trays.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

I have been using the APS 24 systems for at least 15 years. However cleaning the styrofoam trays has been a somewhat onerous task. I have switched to using the deep rooted trays with the APS system and cleaning has become significantly easier. I also find that the the deep rooting trays provide room for a larger root system which keeps my plants healther for transplanting outside. I would definitely recommend using these trays.

sturdy & tough little tray
By geriVerified Purchaser from middlesex NJ on 7/8/2008
Pros:
Durable, Easy To Use, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Garden

High-End Shopper
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

Provides good support for seeds as they germinate. The flimsy little seedling containers I have had disturb the roots when picked up. This one is a heavy and dense plastic that will really last.
This is perfect for dropping seeds into, and letting them harden before transferring to a 3 inch pot.

Comments about Deep-Root Seedstarting Trays:

cells are wide and deep so roots do not circle in the bottom. Great for starting seeds of prairie grasses and wildflowers. Are very sturdy and transport easily. Can be placed in shoe trays to keep cells moist. They wash and store easy for next year.
