Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use a dome tray?

Use a dome tray during germination and early seedling establishment when humidity management helps create a steadier environment. Remove or vent the dome as seedlings develop and airflow becomes more important.

How many cells are included?

This SKU is listed as a 72-cell tray. That count makes it useful for starting multiple varieties or a larger run of the same crop.

Why are the cells hexagon shaped?

The batch source says the hexagon walls guide new roots downward when they reach the cell edge. That design is intended to reduce circular root growth before transplant.

Does the tray prevent transplant stress by itself?

No tray can remove all transplant stress because watering, timing, root maturity, and handling still matter. This design supports cleaner root direction as one part of a good transplant workflow.

Who is this tray best for?

It fits home gardeners, classrooms, retailers, and small propagation areas that need an organized seed-starting tray. Larger commercial operations may use it where 72-cell tray sizing matches their transplant plan.
