The Rapid Automatic Tagger from Blackmore Co. can be used for both small and large runs. Preloading its tag chutes using colored dividers enables the tagger to be used with shorter batch runs. The standard tagger with an optional third head can do up to 700 flats in one hour. READER SERVICE #50
Root Pouch containers from Averna and Associates are made from polyethylene terephthalate (PETE), which comes from recycled plastic beverage bottles. The manufacturing process turns the plastic into non-woven fabric which is used to make nursery containers including propagation liners and various sizes of plantable pouches. The containers are available in different densities and degradable life spans. Plants grown in Root Pouch containers produce more fibrous roots that do not circle the pots. READER SERVICE #51
