20130213841 | STACKABLE CONTAINERS AND ASSOCIATED METHOD FOR THE TRANSPORT OF PLANTS - A filling and transport system is provided in which containers are filled with potting mix or similar growing medium at a first location and transported as a transport module to a second location where plants are planted in the growing medium within the pot. The transport module used to transport the containers and closures containing the growing medium are arranged in a sandwich-like arrangement between two or more stabilising plates having respective retaining elements for engaging with either the base of the containers or the top surface of the closures to retain the containers in stacked relationship to one another during transportation by forming a stable transport module. Each closure is provided with a former for forming and maintaining a void or cavity in the growing medium, particularly during transportation so that the containers arrive at the growers with a preformed bore for receiving the plants. The advantage of the planting and transport system is that growers of plants can plant containers more efficiently since the containers arrive at the growers containing the growing medium ready for planting which obviates the need for the grower to fill the containers on site and form a void before planting. | 08-22-2013 |
