I use empty toilet rolls for my beans. I stand them on end in old plastic mushroom containers. Starts them off nicely.
Yes Chris a good free alternative
Wow! I'm amazed at the strength of these trays. I'm tired of cheap trays that crumble apart after a year or so, I'll have to get some of these. Thanks toni 👨🌾
They are awesome and I thought this would really show how strong they are
They look pretty incredible
It was one of my biggest bug bears and even considered making some out of concrete.
@@lizzieatherfold2293 Yes Lizzie
Love your passion, experience and all your videos, stay Blessed x
Thank you Jannet you too
I use the CD 15, 30 and 60. They are the tray's container wise makes for Charles Dowding.
They are good trays
Great to see you doing a new video Tony, have missed your guidance for far far too long!! Already got the trays pal and agree that they are so robust. All the best for the next vids and future channels.
Phil.
P.S. thanks for all the one to one help you've always openly given me, your a star man. 👍
Cheers Phil
You should release the truck driving on those seed trays as a short - awesome job!
We are in Spring here so everything is growing like crazy, but we should prepare for Summer now (shade from the hot sun and deep mulch)
Preparation is key to growing more as you so rightly point out.
Great idea Gerry Thanks
Thanks Tony. Appreciate your knowledge.
Wow! Thank you so much! Now I know what to do this fall.. and I hope you're feeling better!
One more thing... while I live in Kodiak, Alaska, I have always felt a kinship with gardeners "across the pond" so to speak. So thank you, across the miles, for your enthusiasm for all things gardening
Thanks for the tips
Hi Tony, wow! those trays are amazing! thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
Thanks Christine
Great video Roobob and nice to see you back in the garden. I have mizuna, spring onions, overwintering onions plus just sown kale and spinach and pak choi 👍👍. Glad you all had a fantastic time at Malvern. 🐝 safe and have a great weekend
Yeah it was nice to get out and catch up with folks
Those tray are unbelievable, that's not wicked that's tough and awesome.
Yes they are so strong they will last a lifetime
As new gardeners, these are great points Tony. We tried pak choy last year and it did great, and will definitely branch out this year. We'll check out your other channel.
Cheers Tony
Jason and Colleen 🌱🌱🌱
Thanks Guys
I have some Pak choy seeds, would you sow them in a bed that's just had cauliflower in it or a bed that had corn?
Hi Tony, I bought some of those trays and they are fantastic. The large hole is a great improvement But best of all is how sturdy they are.
Yes they are so strong
thank you for sharing ❤
That certainly "drives" the point home 😆 great video and product Tony 👍 You didn't lose my subscription! I'll pop on over to #2 now. Thanks!
Great to hear :) I thought there is no arguing seeing a lorry sitting on top of them
Thanks for the info tony mate👍
Anytime Graham
Oh they are awesome!!! I love how you put the truck in them lol 😂
Well needed to do something that would really show their quality
Enjoyed the video Tony. Those trays look pretty buff. Should last a long time.
Been looking for trays like these so will take a look
Great stuff
We don’t have Oakland so I use Bootstrap Farmer sold through Indoor Farmer here in Canada. Super quality!
Awesome Thanks for sharing that Frances
Hi Tony great video those trays are brilliant I've seen a few people who are using them might have to invest in a few ,was great to get to meet you at Malvern stay safe and have a great weekend
You too, and yes the trays are awesome
Yes they look strong,It's uv rays that effect plastics ,look at those cheaper polytunnels plastic goes brittle and falls apart.
The plastic is UV stabilized so no. issue there
Subscribed to the new channel . Those trays are tough as nails! will take a look at the site now. Great update . Danny
Cheer Danny, yeah they really are strong
Thank u for great information ❤
Thanks Melvina
👍👍👍👍👍 - Brilliant solution for the Live-streams. I would have loved to watch it (it is still in my Notifications) but I haven't found a block of time long enough to watch it.
The thing with lives is that time flies as your answering folks questions
Great video Tony, loved it, from an extremely prolonged wet Thailand.
Thanks mate
Wow,that trays will probably last a lifetime sir Tony👌👌👌
By the just checked on your 2nd channel,,looking forward on your livestreams🤗🤗🤗💚🌱💚
They will they are so strong
nice video tony
Cheers Steven
Welcome back
Thanks Andy
Just ordered some can't wait
They are brill Alan
@@simplifygardening lots of onion sets to get started
I sent somebody your way today - hope they found you. Great video, thank you
Thanks Amanda 😀👍
Garlic and spring bulbs, yes, but greens don’t work so well if the ground is covered in snow for a few months. I don’t mind the commercials at all. I just wish I could buy those potato buckets here in Canada! Never mind, I appreciate the advice.
Im working on finding a company who will stock them out there but its proving difficult due to the fact they have to be purchased in large quantities
those trays look exactly like the containerwise ones
They are made by the same company
Love your content, Tony. I wish I could buy your trays in the USA.
Bud I’m working on finding similar I do have an idea for you folks so bare with me
@@simplifygardening great i have the same problem cant find any in neither Beverly Hills or Arizona ,,,,,,Ed
How can this channel lose subscriptions???? What a wealth of information - I've learned so much! Thank You...
Thanks Joe :)
I’ve ordered some from Charles dowding place but now ordered from here as free delivery big bonus
Yeah the delivery does make them cheaper
Great video Tony trays look top notch solid lad🤣🤣 👍👍👍 off topic how did the autopot system suite you. I can't seem to find a follow up video on it mate 🌱
There is a follow up mate I think it was the pablano pepper update video
Handy being a fireman
it helps sometimes
In the US, Bootstrap Farmer has high quality trays, etc. I'm never going back. Besides the cracking and breaking, you can get some nasty cuts from the sharp edges.
Once you use quality you wonder why you never made the investment sooner. Its also better economy over the long term
Ive just placed an order, thanks again for info tony mate👍
Cheers Graham
@@dsahduiu239 i have some from containerwise, but im giving these a try aswell to see which i prefer..
@@dsahduiu239 must say i do prefer the ones from oakland garden centre 100% way better than the ones from containerwise imho👌
@@simplifygardening love the pots tony mate, and cheap tbh, thanks again for info mate👌
The bottom holes appear to be larger in these, so I’ll be giving them a go.
Yeah much easier to get plugs out
15s, 30s and 60s are Charles Dowding cell trays very strong 💪
They may come from the same manufactuer
hi tony ,ill be looking at these trays as last year i bought cheap ones ( being my first time gardening ) hoping i could keep them for atleast another season but they fell apart so badly i had to throw them away , will look into these as they look great. what kind of things could i be sowing into cells indoors that would last ( without outgrowing pots) to be planted out in spring? i thought it would be too soon to get things started now, i was thinking of starting around mid feb??
Everything can be sown in them ready to plant out. I hardly direct sow anything
I purchased Charles doubtings CD 60 trays last year and these look identical to those.
Yh, they're all the same design
They are probably from the same manufactuer
wow tony they are very expensive buddy but im going to get a set to check out thank you
They are an investment but you get what you pay for and they could be the last ones you ever buy
@@simplifygardening thanks buddy i agree
These look like Container Wise Materials Handling trays made as designed by Charles Dowding.
They are prob from the same manufactuer
Hi Tony, I’ve found a company called container wise who sell similar products and even after paying VAT and postage it works out somewhat cheaper than Oakland gardens. Have a look and see what you think.
Chris They are the same containers. And you are correct. They work out cheaper until you add their shipping costs. Oaklands is cheaper on every possible format because there is FREE shipping so if you add containerwise shipping to your order, you will see they are cheaper at Oaklands. I did state this in the video
Hi Tony, are these the containerwise trays?...Steve...🙂
Yeah the same manufacturer mate
@@simplifygardening The containerwise ones are recycled polypropylene and are manufactured in Portugal. Are Oakland getting them from containerwise and are made from recycled polypropylene or direct from Portugal and maybe another material.? Just curious and very interested...Steve...🙂
I agree re lifestreams. Not my thing at all. I prefer your videos. They are great!!!
Thats why I separated them
I cannot find the link to order the potato buckets with handles or not.. Can you tell me where to find them?
Yes www.oaklandgardens.co.uk/plant-pot-containers--30---130-litre-potato-buckets-35881-p.asp
Tony
I planted 4 Joan Raspberry canes. So far I've had 3.5 lbs of fruit. AND lbs more STILL to come...
P.s Broad beans ?.when would you plant for optimum plant size for the winter...
I've Aquadulce for autumn planting..
plant them anytime now to end of month to give them time to get a decent size
Containerwise
Yes same as
Yes they are brilliant
Is there a source for these trays in the USA?
Not these exact ones Bruce but looking for a solid alternative for you
Another great video Tony... You're a mind reader... HaHa!
Thanks Ron :)
Outstanding! Cheers Tony. Been looking at seed trays & 30l pots and here you are with a promo! Have you got a supplier for paramagnetic/volcanic Rock Dust and microrrhazl innoculant? (see John Kempf for why)
Not a lover of rock dust because I don't think you require it I did make a video on it. Im working on mycohrizal
@@simplifygardening most wont need rock dust, I've had to build soil from scratch in raised beds on on a rubble base with only 3" of river silt added on top of 1yr composted woodchip to fill the beds, only other choice was to buy in 40 tons of topsoil, not cheap!
🖤
I generally don't bother with live streaming it's more a timing issue than anything else
Richard they will be on the channel to watch at a later stage if you don't want to watch live
Just went to check out those trays. Was thinking wow. Great.
But when I seen the price I was put off. If I went to wilko I could buy over 300 seed trays for the same price as only 10 trays from Oakland
I to get that oaklands would be a lot better and stronger. But the price would really have to come down.
I love your videos . And the product does look great. But we need to be what we are spending these days.
I grow fruit and veg to save money as well as for fun.
Anyone who can afford these trays and want to buy. That's great. But I can not justify the price for me personally.
Plz keep the videos coming
Yes Chris they are much more expensive but the likelihood you would never need to buy again
Its strange watching the northern hemisphere winding down when were just starting to plant out our spring/ summer crops
All the info is still valid, just flip the months and your good to go
Are those trays available in the USA?
Not from Oaklands atm. I know Kevin from Epic gardening has something similar
@@simplifygardening Thanks. I'm subscribed to him as well. I'll check it out.
I am going to take a year off from gardening next year. I’m tired of doing it. I need time off. Too much work.
If its not fun its prob good to have a break
Must be a lot of orders going through...I can't access the site.
Wow, I just tried and got through so try again
Still giving me a 504 error. I'll try from my home computer later.
Why not Call it Simplify Gardening Live
I use paper cups & put them in yogurt cups ; then peel the paper cups & wash the yogurt cups for next time❣️ Short time ice cream cones work & just bury them❣️✌️🍀😢🤗 Hopefully you’re getting better❣️✝️💟☮️
Much better thanks Margaret. Yes there are so many ways and these trays wont be for everyone due to their choices on how they garden
My problem is I live on SS & can’t afford ; so the only trays I get are from the dump❣️😂✌️🍀🙏💗Recycle & Reuse❣️🇺🇸
@@margaretparsons9858 Reusing them from there is a great way to keep them out of landfil
I grow potatoes all year round what I get what I get
Thats gardening as a whole
The problem with Lives is, someone asks a question, you (I) want to ask
a follow up to the question. By the time it's posted the presenter has moved
onto a different topic/question. Seen it happen all too often. Multiple channels.
That and in time they just turn into a chat fest between the same bunch
every episode. At least if it's 2 separate channels, and the "Live" is kept
active, it can be viewed at a later time and comment there.
Best of Luck Tony
👍
Yeah my findings too Mark
grew my spuds in 30 litre pots, watered them every day and were a complete disaster
Its been a bad year Chris watch next weeks video where I discuss whats happening
Greetings from New Zealand!
I have to say, it doesn't make sense unsubscribing from a channel just because they do livestreaming. If you don't want to watch it, then don't watch it, but why unsubscibe? I subscribe to a couple channels that do livestreaming, and I rarely watch the livestreams. Some of the channels that I subscribe to also do product reviews, and either I'm not interested in those products, or we just don't get them here, so I just skip those videos too. I also subscribe to channels where the people have different religious views than I do, or different political views, but their info on the topics I subscribe to them for is great, so I just ignore any religious or political references. I don't unsubscibe.
Nobody, and no channel, is ever going to be 100% what you want 100% of the time. That is like deciding a friend isn't a friend any more because they take an interest is something you aren't interested in. "Sorry dude, you have taken up bike riding and I don't like riding bikes, so our 10 yrs of friendship is done. I don't ever want to see you again". Ridiculous. Some people really need to put their big boy/girl pants on and grow up!
I love your channel Tony, and I'm sorry you have to deal with people like that. But there are a lot of us out there who do appreciate your work 😊 Cheers.
Wish we could get those fab seedling cells here! Would love something that!
Im sorry they are not there. but looking for alternatives
Just seen the prices... 🤑😯
Its an investment for sure, but will last a lifetime
"Guys you don't want to see me drive a lorry onto them, I'm going to drive an M1 tank........"
lol
@@simplifygardening Sold me, I'm going to get some...
Also I can't understand people unsubscribing for you doing lives. Though I'm not disputing it. Yes there longer but if someone does one and I'm not interested in the subject or don't have time I just don't watch that one.
I watch gardener Scott lives nearly weekly, as a relatively new gardener I like being able to ask questions on live chat and getting answers from the mods and once from Scott.
You would think that is the way but it isn't I can show stats for every live I have ever did and I lost each time
@@simplifygardening I believe you I just don't understand it.
They all have far too many cells for the way I grow. I buy packs of Wilko 24x cells, preferably end of season with 50 to 75% off, and I immediately cut each of them into four pieces each consisting of 4 cells.
I use them for both seed sowing and transplants, either 6x same variety, or 6 different, and the advantage of smaller sections is more efficient use of heat mats and growlights because as soon as those 6 cells have germinated, been transplanted, moved on, etc., their space is immediately occupied by another section of 6 cells. With say 30x cell trays there would be loads of wasted space on my heat mats/under lights until the whole 30 cells had been delt with.
My 'flimsy' cells last way longer than 2 years, more like 6, and as they deteriorate I'll repair by doubling up with smaller damaged sections pushed into them. I use this to my advantage in making a saving in plastic labels, with the repair section and original containing different seeds/seedlings, but each piece only requiring 1 label.
Earlier this week I found a garden centre selling two packs of really heavy duty/dishwasher safe Garland 24x cell inserts for £1.49 /75p each (reduced from £5.99) so I'm giving those a try for those situations where they're suitable for multiple seeds/plants that don't require heated propagators or growlights.
The smaller trays only have 15 next size has 30
@@simplifygardening Still way too big as there's no way I'd be sowing that number of varieties that would all germinate and require transplanting on the same day(s), nor different transplant varieties that could be transplanted simultaneously, meaning a waste of now very expensive space on heat mats under grow lights. I don't want to waste a load of expensive energy both heating and lighting potentially 75% of the area of my heat mats and grow lights.
Haha..😀😁😆🤣😂 has any gardener ever tested a seed tray to such extreme standards.
Well if anyone was ever unsure if they were strong, its just put that to bed in their mind, if it can stand up to a lorry it can stand up to being thrown around by a gardener
@@simplifygardening You should do more of these tests even if it's pure comedy and maybe a JCB V Potato bucket challenge.
Great video Tony.
£15 for a tray is way too expensive even if it lasts years
It is an investment Matt but it will last you a lifetime
No I am not trying to save the planet... just my KIDS!!!
BRING ON THE PLASTIC!!!
now is important too
Absolutely nothing wrong with soil blockers if you get the compost right, when you do they are brilliant.
This whole video is just an advert, shame really as I usually like your videos.
I agree Tim but not with peat free composts
@@simplifygardening I have done it 100% peat free, just with home made and some fine vermiculite added. 😃
Unfortunately I can't get live streams 'live' It uses too much phone data, so for me I have to catch up later.... so maybe you weren't actually losing subscribers, maybe, like me , the format wasn't appropriate.
Yes but rather than not watching them and waiting for the next video they unsubbed
@@simplifygardening Their loss.
Live stream presentations: 🤮
I don't like them, but I would never unsubscribe. That is no way to "send a message".
Unsubscribing is only being rude.
I just give a courteous "like" move along and watch something else.
They are not for everyone but this is why it will be on a different channel
Disappointing video really .Wholly dedicated to advertorial/ income content. Obviously you need to make a quid Tony, but don't lose your credibility by endorsing goods that give you "kickbacks" for overpriced products that have easily accessed competitive alternatives! To pay 15 quid for a mass produced simple seedling tray is ridiculously expensive,,,,, even in today's crazy times of high inflation etc.! I really liked the "old" Tony vids ..... but if your future is about advertorials, then i too will unsub, your channel. There are numerous GREAT new channels available now that utilize product endorsements ..... and acknowledge such .... BUT these products are GENUINE GREAT VALUE usually, and represent WIN/WIN/WIN for all participants! I view this promotion as a clear WIN/ WIN and one big RIPOFF!!
Keith I am very sorry you feel that way. However just for reference Not one penny exchanged hands for this video. I truly believe that these trays are value for money. Sure they are an investment and not for everyone but they are economical over the long term as the quantity shows you won’t be buying new ones all the time. It’s just like why some people pay huge amounts more for a bmw when a Skoda gets them to the same place. You do get what you pay for. If you feel my channel is no longer for you then as you say there are plenty of alternative good channels. But in all fairness I ensure that my videos are packed with Free information for all. Occasionally I promote products from a sponsor which is required to help find the channel for the equipment and more importantly the time I invest to bring the content to you. It is not a point and shoot video and each 10 min video takes nearly a week of work. You are not forced to buy a product and although this video is not for you plenty of people have enjoyed it and purchased the product so it was for them. Not every video I make will please all people no matter how much I try. I hope you have a great day
@@simplifygardening Thank you Tony for your prompt reply. At this point I will continue to watch your tutorials, as I said, prior to this latest one, I have appreciated and enjoyed your down to earth and practical videos. I wish you all the best in everything you do in the future.... and especially with regard to your health issues. Kind Regards : Keith Notley.. 🍀
I just use the 64 cell cheap plastic ones for starting seeds. They're just 5 bucks at the dollar general store and I just throw them away. I don't have to store even more stuff that I don't have room for.
Subbed to your new channel.
Might I suggest you call it 'Simplify Gardening Live' or 'Simplify Gardening 2Live' ?
Anyhoo, you did the obvious and that's to be congratulated.
A good shout that, I will be redoing al the banners and stuff just wanted to get the word out in the meantime
I knew I should have become a firefighter, just so I could get the opportunity to test a block of extruded plastic to destruction with a 40-tonne vehicle.
(Well, for that and one or two other reasons. But my back wasn't quite up to it, see.)
Its a challenge for sure Rich. I never said it was a fire engine I just said it was a red lorry :)
