Kapok Candle Co 288-Cell Seedling Tray (10 Pack) — Reusable Germination Plug Trays, 2880 Cells

Overview

Grow more plants in less space with the Kapok Candle Co 288-Cell Seedling Tray. This high-density plug tray is designed to fit all standard 1020 trays, letting you optimize bench real estate while keeping your seedlings organized in a uniform grid. The arrangement helps you run larger seed lots with precision and straightforward transplanting, whether you’re starting herbs, microgreens, ornamentals, or other small-seeded varieties.

The tray features a matte black, 1.0 mm thick plastic that offers durability without sacrificing flexibility. The dark finish absorbs and retains heat, creating a warmer microclimate that can support steady germination timing across batches. It’s designed for reuse across seasons, making it a practical choice for hobby gardeners and professional propagation operations alike.

Inside each tray you’ll find 288 individual cells, each sized to hold about 5cc of growing medium. The compact cells provide uniform spacing for uniform seedling development, while their integrated drainage holes promote airflow and reduce the risk of overwatering. The result is a platform that supports healthier root pruning as seedlings grow toward transplanting.

Manufactured by a top Korean supplier, this plug tray demonstrates premium craftsmanship, clean mold lines, and reliable performance under heavy use. The tray is washable, stackable, and designed to withstand repeated planting cycles, making it a long-lasting addition to a propagation workflow.
