The RootMaker® Express™ 18 (25 cu. in.) is an injection-molded new and improved single.
Use the express 18 to start seeds or 2 bud cuttings. The air root pruning action of this container will assure more substantial root development in the early stages, increasing both plant health and growth when you move it into the field or to a larger container.
RootMakers® require a wire bench or other support 18 to 24” above the floor to allow good air circulation and thus efficient air-root-pruning on all sides of the container, not just the bottom.
We recommend purchasing the Shuttle™ tray. It conviently holds 18 of the Express™ 18’s.
RootMaker® propagation containers can be filled with a mix of peat and perlite 40/60 or peat, perlite, and vermiculite 40/40/20, or pine bark, peat, and perlite at 50/30/20 by volume. Add 1.0 pound of Micromax® micronutrients, 3 pounds of dolomite, and 6 pounds of Osmocote® 18-6-12 (no substitutes) per cubic yard of mix.
