Rootrainers provide the best growing system for seeds, plugs and cuttings by way of the deep ribbed cells which help seedlings develop strong, fibrous root systems. The unique open-bottomed design of the cells allow earlier root tips to make contact with the air and die off, which are replaced by fresh young roots. The re-usable cells hinge open to allow easy removal of the plant, with no root disturbance, ready for transplanting.
As recommended on BBC Gardeners World, Friday 20th April 2007
• Available in two sizes; Deep (12cm deep, 32 cells), Rapid (8cm deep, 32 cells)
• Deep and Rapid Rootrainers consist of 2 trays of 32 cells and 2 clear propagating lids - giving a potential 64 plants
• Deep Rootrainers ideal for beans, sweet peas and strawberries and other deep rooting plants
• Rapid Rootrainers the choice for salad crops, bedding plants and all annuals not requiring deep rooting space
• Re-useable cells simply hinge open to allow the plant to be removed without damaging the roots

What The Experts Say...
"Good way to raise bedding or cuttings as it makes handling the plants simpler. Those produced should be bigger and garden ready due to the larger root system."
"Especially useful for plants that need deep root runs and dislike root disturbance. Opens like a book for easy inspection of moisture levels, root growth and the removal of plants."

Sneeboer Digging Fork
Sneeboer Digging Fork
£94.95
Reckoned to be the best Sneeboer have ever produced, this Digging Fork is lighter than previous models (it weighs in at 2kg) but is heavy duty enough to cope with digging over the largest of beds. The overall length of this ergonomically superior digging fork is 116cm and the 24cm flat tines will slice through the most compacted soil.

• The overall length is 116cm
The Fork - Sneeboer tools are praised by garden professionals. Start off with the digging fork for £84.95, a worthy investment and one that should last a lifetime.
'Men at Work - There's nothing sexier than a man at work, toiling hard in the country that is. Country and Town House chooses its favourite boys toys, tools and accessories for the outdoor hero.'
Country and Townhouse magazine, August/September 2009
As seen on BBC Gardeners World 2009
Verdict: This traditional Dutch hand-forged fork has a small stainless steel head with wide, flat, pointed tines designed to slice through soil more easily than thin tines. The extra-long wooden shaft ends in a small T-handle. While this fork looks fairly utilitarian, it is lightweight and surprisingly easy to use. However, it is much more expensive than the other forks tested. Rating: 4*

I have always enjoyed working with Sneeboer so a fork and spade from their range would be a good start...
