This seeding cover allows you to distribute seeds into a 288 tray and have them automatically centered. You avoid dropping seeds into air holes and can distribute seeds much faster.
This system replaces broadcasting seeding into open flats
This is perfect for replacing the labor and time intensive "pricking out" method for germinating seeds before potting on.
