These spool holders are necessary extensions to use the Gridder Dibble Spikes. They are only compatible with the recent Gridder handle configuration. If you purchased your handle in the last year than these will work for you. If you are unsure, then contact us with your order number and pictures of your handle and we can let you know.

The Gridder
Easy, quick, and perfectly straight plantings every time. This ensures even growth and fast cultivation.
The gridder is a rolling dibbler used to lay out or create a grid for your plantings. It is also used to make straight lines before direct seeding or using a paperpot transplanter.

Gridder Spool Spacing
Below is an example of the Two Row Spool Layout
Plants are 15" from Each Other
Plants all have 15" of Space
Even and straight plantings are more productive and easier to cultivate.
The gridder creates straight, evenly spaced plantings on a 30" bed. Each spool is related to the number of rows you intend to mark/plant. The spool will divide the bed evenly by that number of rows. Two row spool - 30” bed /2 rows = 15”. A 2 row spool marks rows 15” apart in the bed. Obviously in-row spacing and row spacing are identical for even plantings.
3 rows on a 30" bed (30/3=10") Rows are spaced 10" apart.
4 rows on a 30" bed (30/4=7.5") Rows are 7.5" apart
