Description
Soil Blocker 20 Cell and 8 Cell, Zinc Coated Steel Soil Block Maker
-
Stronger seedlings from day one: independent soil blocks give every seedling room to grow its own root system
-
Skip transplant shock completely: a more efficient seed-starting method that eliminates transplant shock 100%
-
No plastic trays to throw away: less waste and a more eco-friendly way to start seeds
-
Two block sizes, one tool: nest the 20-cell micro blocks inside the 8-cell maxi blocks for fuller soil space
-
Built to outlast plastic trays: zinc-coated steel resists rust and deformation for years of seasons
Plastic seed trays crack, warp, and end up in the trash every season, and pulling a seedling out of one often tears at the roots before it ever reaches the garden. This soil blocker skips the tray altogether: it presses compact, nutrient-rich soil blocks that hold together on their own, so each seedling grows an independent root system from the very first day. There's no plastic pot standing between the seed and the soil, which means less waste and a planting method that's more eco-friendly from the start.
A 20-cell micro blocker presses 0.8in/2cm blocks for delicate seeds, while an 8-cell maxi blocker presses 2in/5cm blocks for stronger transplants, and a soil block from the 20-cell set nests right into the 8-cell set for a fuller soil space that holds more nutrients. Three different seed pins handle different kinds of seeds, so one tool works across the whole seed tray instead of switching equipment for every crop. Made of thickened zinc-coated steel, this soil block maker is built to be used for years, with a strong, heavy-gauge structure that resists rust and won't deform under regular garden use.

Key Features
Beyond the block-and-plant basics, this soil block maker and seed planting tool also carries:
-
Independent Root Growth: each soil block stands on its own, giving every seedling stronger, independent root growth.
-
100% Transplant-Shock Elimination: a more efficient seed-starting method that eliminates transplant shock entirely.
-
No Disposable Plastic Trays: skips plastic plant trays completely, cutting down on waste and adding up to a more eco-friendly setup.
-
Nestable 20-and-8-Cell Blocks: the 20-cell and 8-cell soil blockers nest together into one completed block.
-
Three Pin Shapes for Every Seed: swap in whichever of the three pins fits the seeds going in, since each pin shape suits a different kind of seed.
-
Two Block Sizes for Two Jobs: delicate seeds suit the 0.8in (2cm) micro blocks, stronger transplants suit the 2in (5cm) maxi blocks, and nesting the two block sizes together gives a fuller soil space for different needs.
-
Zinc-Coated Steel Body: built from thickened zinc-coated heavy-gauge steel that resists rust and won't deform over years of use.
