Soil Block Maker Complete Kit*

The Complete Seed Starting Kit*

The Complete Seed Starting Kit includes everything you need to get seeds started with soil blocking and to support growth indoors and planted outdoors in the garden.

Soil blocking is a simple and easy way to start seeds in a home setting.  We use trays without drainage holes making it easy to start seeds almost anywhere indoors. In the area of 12″ x 26″ you can start and support 240 small blocker plants until they go to the garden. We find that the seedlings develop stronger root systems, grow faster, and transition to the garden without transplant shock, helping them hit the ground running.

Here is what customers are saying about how soil blocking has changed their seed starting experience.
