The humble teespoon...

Anyone use this method of pricking out?.Just scoops perfectly into cell trays.All the roots,soil... You don`t have to touch any part of the seedling.Magic.

 

Oooh, no, but I will be! Great idea! Thanks for sharing.

 

Yes Elaine - I always do it that way. Seems to work well. With luck you can scoop up a lump of compost with the roots attached, which has to be a good thing.

 

Good tip elaine

I usually use a pen or knife never bothered buying a dibber...

A tea spoon will be a lot gentler.

 

I use a stick, they do at Ness gardens too when we've been pricking out

 

Nice idea, thanks

 

I use a chopstick :D :D

 

I used a teaspoon today, planted out sunflowers, nasturtiums and pot marigolds that i'd started off in trays - worked a treat!
