Landmark Plastic Round 1020 Plug Sheet - 50 Cells - 5x10 - 2.00in Cell - Black

50PS Round Plug Sheet with Air-Pruning Base for Superior Propagation

The Landmark Plastic Round 1020 Plug Sheet -- 50PS provides 50 round cells in a 5x10 layout across a standard 10.42in x 20.85in footprint. Each 2.00in cell on the 50PS features a burned drainage hole and circle ridge bottom for improved water management and root guidance. The 50PS is thermoformed for consistent cell geometry and durability through repeated production cycles.

Key Features & Benefits

• 50 Cells -- 5x10 Layout: Round cell configuration across a standard 1020 footprint for compatibility with commercial propagation systems.
• 2.00in Cell Diameter: Precision round cells for uniform plug formation and consistent transplant sizing on the 50PS.
• Burned Drainage Hole: Heat-formed sealed hole at the base of each 50PS cell allows drainage while maintaining plug integrity.
• Circle Ridge Bottom: Molded ridges at the 50PS cell base air-prune roots, encourage lateral branching, and prevent root circling.
• Tray Dimensions: 10.42in W x 20.85in L x 2.38in D: Standard 1020 footprint keeps the 50PS compatible with propagation benches and rack systems.
• Thermoformed Construction: Consistent cell walls and stable structure keep the 50PS reliable across automated and manual propagation workflows.

Who Should Use This

Professional propagators and commercial nurseries running the 50PS want consistent round plug geometry and reliable drainage in a standard 1020 tray format. The 50PS suits growers who need a lower-density 5x10 layout than the higher-count 72PS provides.

Compatibility

The 50PS fits standard 1020 (10.42in x 20.85in) propagation tray carriers and bench systems, and works with peat plugs, coco coir, and soilless mixes sized for the 50PS's 2.00in cells.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a burned hole on the 50PS, and how does it differ from a punched hole?

On the 50PS, a burned hole is formed by heat, producing a smooth sealed edge that retains plug structure while allowing drainage, unlike punched holes which can create rough edges or stress fractures in the cell wall. The 50PS's 2.00in cell gives that seal a smaller sealed area to manage per plug than the 72PS's 2.54in cell.

What does the circle ridge bottom do on the 50PS?

The circle ridge bottom on the 50PS air-prunes roots as they reach the base, stimulating lateral branching and preventing root circling for a healthier, more fibrous root system. The 50PS's ridge sits at a shallower 2.00in cell than the 72PS.

How many cells does the 50PS plug sheet have?

The 50PS has 50 cells in a 5x10 arrangement, each measuring 2.00in in diameter. That 5x10 layout balances bench-space efficiency with plug volume for growers who don't need the 72PS's higher cell count.

What tray carrier fits the 50PS plug sheet?

The 50PS plug sheets fit standard 1020 tray carriers measuring 10.42in W x 20.85in L, compatible with most commercial propagation bench and rack systems. Confirm your carrier depth clears the 50PS's 2.38in tray height before ordering in volume.
