Cabbage Transplanting! 🌱🥬
This machine is different that our single row transplanter used on plastic rows. Cabbage is considered a “cold crop,” so it doesn’t need to be planted on plastic rows. Because of this, we are able to plant 8 rows at a time! Each person has several trays in front of them. They carefully place 1 plant into each of the 6 rotating “pots.” The machine makes a row and drops 1 plant per hole, evenly spaced. We are able to plant cold crops like this much quicker with this type of transplanter!
