Every year I grow the vast majority of my plants in modules and then transplant them out direct into the soil. As this can mean planting out several hundred plants I wanted an easy method to undertake this that was time saving, efficient and did a good job.
The pots I use are 2" and are 40 to a tray. They come from Aldi at a cost of £2.49 but are available from most garden centres. The only other bit of kit required is a dibber made from an old fork or spade handle and most of us have one of those. All I do is dib a hole 3" deep with the dibber, and then drop the plant, sans pot into the hole. It is a perfect fit and requires no other action other than watering in. This method is so easy and quick that several trays can be planted out in an hour.
Enjoy.
