Rootrainer Spacers (for Rapid, Rannoch and Sherwood)

Spacers are used when a row or more of books is taken out of the tray to prevent the other books opening and collapsing. The use of spacers is ideal when your plants are getting bushy and need more room. Ideally the books which are removed can be placed into another tray and spacers used in the new tray as well. The spacers are only suitable for use with Rapid, Rannoch and Sherwood trays. Spacers are sold in sets of two. Spacers or dividers also enable you to sow fewer cells and so conserve compost.
