New for 2019, this 6 cell container holds 6 individual 120mm diameter Ellepots, making it Proptek's largest cell sized Ellepot-compatible container to date.
A 120mm wide Ellepot is the equivalent of a gallon pot loose-fill container and is the perfect size for all fruit trees and larger landscape trees. It is also an excellent substitute for those trees grown in plastic bags – even though the rootball may end up being slightly smaller. This is because the root system is far superior than when grown in bags, meaning a smaller rootball can support a much larger tree. This tree is also highly likely to take better and grow quicker once planted out too.
This sized Ellepot is also a good size for greenhouse or indoor cultivation of adult hemp plants all the way up to harvesting size.
One of the key concepts with the Ellepot/Proptek system is how compatible with automation it is. Serious time and money efficiency savings can be made throughout the whole growing process, right from filling, to sorting and grading to shipping out of the door.
