Air Pruning
Roots obviously grow downward. Every nursery tray has only a round drainage hole at the bottom of the cell. Roots hit the bottom of the tray and circle around and around that hole.
The Winstrip Trays' unique bottom design stops roots from circling even if the plant is overgrown. It is all about that Winstrip shape at the bottom of the cell. It holds in soil and air prunes.

Winstrip® Trays
"Switching to Winstrip Trays had the biggest affect on my farm's production compared to all the changes we have made at Neversink over the years." -Conor Crickmore
Benefits
Air pruning
Stronger Roots
Eliminates Over watering
Do not dry out as easily
Better Plant Survival
Healthier with Less Disease
Air Circulation Around Cells
Fast to fill
Air Pruning
The Large Winstrip Shape that extend across the bottom of the cell not only make it easy to remove starts but air prune the roots preventing root circling. Thus Transplants can be left longer in the tray if needed. Transplants are also healthier and grow quickly when transplanted.
Lifetime Use
Each tray weighs in at over 1.7 pounds. They stack and nest for easy storage. They are made with thick UV resistant plastic of the highest quality to last for many, many years. I have had mine for 10 years and they still work great.
Open Cell
Winstrips open cell design allows more air which creates a healthier environment. Each cell has vertical air spaces and air strips where air can flow around each cell. More importantly these slits extend all the way to the bottom corners of the cell. This creates healthy starts with much less disease.

Bottom Trays?
Bottom trays are a great addition to water Winstrips from below. Our indestructible trays are the best made.
Unlike regular flimsy vacuum formed nursery trays, Winstrips do not require a bottom tray for handling. Winstrips can be moved around easily with one hand.
For farm scale use in Greenhouses, Winstrip Trays can be used directly on vented tables to get the best air circulation.
