Purchased 3 x Haxnicks 32 deep cell Root Trainers yesterday

Very disappointed to now discover that they no longer have a enclosed tray to sit in


On the weather front: for ages now we had been unable to get out on the plot because of the rain, not I dare not go on the plot for any length of time because of the sun. I dare not risk getting sun burn around my left cheek or neck area

I've never seen any with a tray; just frame, books and covers.

Perhaps, PaSnip, you mean the transparent cover as tray? I always use the transparent cover as cover and have bought a number of solid seed trays (without holes) to stand the frames in. I bought my first long root trainers when they first came out (12/15 years ago?) and they are so brilliant, especially for all the bean species and sweet peas. The short ones I use for all the brassicas and other bits and pieces.

I stand corrected, Mrs S was leading me up the garden path
