About This

• This genuine Ladbrooke 'Mini 4' soil blocker is the most popular and versatile of the Ladbrooke soil blockers, and a recommended size to start soil blocking with. The hand-held soil block maker makes four 2' x 2’ x 2” soil blocks, each with a seed dimple pre-formed in the soil block.
• These are utilitarian, hand-made gardening tools. The EP black coating offers superior corrosion resistance by creating a dense, impermeable barrier against moisture, oxygen, and soil chemicals, which also extends the lifespan of these garden tools.
• It is part of the unique Ladbrooke Micro 20/Mini 4/Maxi 'nesting' system for starting seeds and transplanting starts. 'Nesting refers to upsizing the soil block size from the Micro 20 to the Mini 4 soil blocks, or from the Mini 4 soil blocks to the Maxi soil blocker. The Mini 4 comes with a set of four 3/8' seed pins, which must be inserted.
• To make soil blocks, potting soil is compressed wet into the soil block mold and then discharged into a tray with the ejection handle. Soil blockers make a 'pot-less' pot for starting seeds. With soil blocks, roots are air-pruned and transplant shock, stunting, slow-growth are greatly reduced.
• Soil blocking offers an eco-friendly system that eliminates the need for using plastic seed starting trays, and buying, storing and sanitizing plastic pots.
• Check for authenticity. Ladbrooke proudly displays its logo on the handle of the Mini 4!
• Made by Ladbrooke, of England, makers of the highest quality products! All Ladbrooke soil blocking tools are made from durable steel that will last for years.
