The rain cover is attached with a strong Velcro strip.

Benefits include:
• The sprouts are hardened off more effectively because even with prolonged rain, the pre-sprouting bags remain outside
The rain cover protects the bags from approx. 75% of the rain.
• The rain cover can be replaced if worn.
• Remove the rain cover when it is not needed.
Nearly all customers order the rain cover.

A robust Velcro strip is attached to the base of the pre-sprouting bag. The fastening strip is strong enough to allow half the bag to be opened.
Trapped soil or dust does not affect its fastening capacity.

We recommend closing the fastening when the bag is empty.
Tip: Lift up the pre-sprouting rack 1 m with a forklift. This avoids you having to bend over.

Pre-sprouting of 28-35
make standard bag narrower

Sometimes seed potatoes of 28-35 mm need to be pre-sprouted.

A practical solution is:
1. Take an empty standard pre-sprouting bag
2. Make battens of 4×3 cm wide (tile battens) and 90 cm long
3. Insert them horizontally on one outer side of the bag
4. Place the 14 pre-sprouting bags on the Sprinter2 pre-sprouting rack and fill them.

Preserve pre-sprouting bags
on pre-sprouting rack

Store the empty pre-sprouting bags at the ends of the pre-sprouting racks. This saves a lot of work.

The pre-sprouting bags with rods can also be stored in a closed crate.
