Why Winstrip

Air pruning
without the faff

Soil blocking was never really about the block. It was about air. Roots hit the open edge, stop, and branch back into the plug instead of spiralling round the inside of a cell.

Winstrip does the same job with open slots down every side, so you get the root structure soil blockers are famous for while still filling, seeding and popping at tray speed. No blocker to set up, no mix to get exactly right, no bench full of blocks drying out at the edges.

  • Roots stop at the slot rather than circling the cell wall
  • More fine root through the plug, so transplants take hold faster
  • Fill and seed a tray in a fraction of the time blocking takes
  • Plugs come out whole and upright with the dibble board and plug popper

Cross section through a single cell. The slots run the full depth on both sides, so every root that reaches a wall meets air instead of plastic.
Built to outlast the tunnel

Indestructible
is not marketing

Most nursery trays are a consumable. You buy them, they go brittle in the sun, they crack when you lift them wet, and you buy them again.

These are injection moulded from recycled BPA free plastic in the USA, and they flex instead of snapping. A full, soaked tray keeps its shape when you pick it up one handed, which is the moment cheap trays fold and dump the lot on the floor. Buy them once and they are still in the prop house in twenty years.

We ran one over
with a Transit.
On purpose, to find out where the limit was. We put a tray on the yard, drove a Transit over it, then picked it up, filled it with compost and seeded it the same week. It is still in use. That is the whole claim, and we would not make it if we had not done it ourselves.

Choose your tray

Every Winstrip size is the same price, so pick on cell count rather than budget. Bottom trays and accessories are below.

Air prune trays

Winstrip Trays

The air prune tray, and the reason this page exists. Same tray, five cell counts. Larger cells for anything you want to grow on, tighter counts for succession leaf and alliums.

Small format

Mini Wini

The Winstrip design in a smaller tray. Useful for trialling varieties, small successions, and anywhere a full tray is more than you need.

The indestructible one

Bottom Trays

What your Winstrips sit in. Holes for standard watering, solid for bottom watering and moving wet trays without dripping through the prop house.

Paperpot and microgreens

Flat Trays

Stack and nest trays for paperpot chains and microgreen production. Holed for drainage or solid bottomed depending on how you water.

Potting on

Winstrip XL Pots

For anything that needs a bigger root run before it goes out. The carry insert holds the pots square so a full set moves in one lift.
