Filling Flats

Here we are filling flats. On a rainy Saturday, 3 of us filled 600 flats which were used the following week to plants pansies in. We will be doing this a few times over the next month. It makes it so much easier when planting time comes. We just move the skid to where the little plants are and grab the flats that are filled from the skid and start planting. The plants are labeled and placed on a conveyor belt to be taken to the spot where they are placed on the ground or a bench. Every year we are trying to improve on efficiency and productivity. Impatiens growing as far as you can see. These will be planted into the 1204 flats (12x4 plants) we filled, in about a month.
