The Gro-Sure Visiroot 4 Cell Deep Kit gives deep-rooting flowers and vegetables extra room to develop strong roots before they're planted outside. Seven 4-cell modules provide space for up to 28 individual seedlings, making them ideal for sweet peas, beans and other vigorous plants that benefit from deeper growing cells.
Use them for sweet peas, broad beans, French beans, runner beans, peas, sweetcorn and sunflowers, as well as other flowers and vegetables with vigorous root systems. Each plant grows in its own deep cell, helping to prevent roots becoming tangled with neighbouring seedlings.
The transparent cells let you see root development and check moisture levels without disturbing your plants, while Moisture Bridge technology helps distribute water and nutrients. When it's time to plant out, the cells open to release the root system with minimal disturbance.
The kit also includes a drip tray and propagator lid, giving you everything you need to sow, germinate and grow on your seedlings. The durable cells can be rinsed and reused for your next batch of seeds, and the rPET material is recyclable at home when it eventually reaches the end of its useful life.
What's Included
How to Use
Fill each deep cell with a quality seed and cutting compost. Sow your seeds at the depth recommended on the seed packet, then water carefully to moisten the compost.
Place the propagator lid over the tray while your seeds germinate. Keep the compost appropriately moist and follow the temperature and light requirements for the seeds you're growing.
Once your seedlings appear, continue growing them until they have developed a healthy root system and are large enough to move on. The transparent cells make it easy to check root development and moisture levels as they grow.
What Can I Grow?
The deep cells are ideal for plants that develop long or vigorous root systems, including sweet peas, broad beans, French beans, runner beans, peas, sweetcorn and sunflowers.
The extra depth gives developing roots more room to grow downwards than a standard shallow seed tray. Each seedling also grows in its own cell, helping to prevent roots becoming tangled with neighbouring plants and making transplanting easier.
Sweet peas develop substantial root systems while they're young, making them particularly well suited to deep growing cells. The additional depth gives their roots more room to develop before the plants are moved outside.
Transplanting & Reusing
Your seedlings are ready to move on once they're well established with a healthy root system. The transparent cells let you check how the roots are developing without removing the plant.
If your seedlings have been raised indoors or in a greenhouse, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions before planting out. Place them outside in a sheltered position during the day, bringing them back under cover at night, then gradually increase the time they spend outside.
Open the cell carefully and remove the seedling with its roots and compost intact. Avoid pulling the plant by its stem, as this can damage young growth and roots.
Plant at the depth and spacing recommended for the variety you're growing, gently firm the soil around the roots and water thoroughly. Protect young plants from late frosts and pests where necessary.
After use, empty out any remaining compost and rinse the cells, tray and lid thoroughly. Allow them to dry before storing or using them again for your next batch of seeds.
