Young plants typically come in trays, also known as liners, which ensure consistent growth and easy handling. However, some young plants, especially those grown directly in the field at a young plant farm, may be supplied as bare-rooted plants. The difference between a liner and a plug is crucial; liners, often larger, are usually derived from cuttings or tissue culture, while plugs, smaller in size, come from seedlings. This distinction is important when selecting the right young plants for your needs.
Liner sizes for young plants vary based on the number of cells within a tray, which is standardized for efficiency in production and transport. A young plants nursery typically offers multiple liner sizes to accommodate different plant types and grower preferences. For example, trays may range from those with fewer, larger cells to those with more, smaller cells, allowing for flexibility in choosing the best size for the specific young plant you are cultivating.
Among green industry growers, certain liner sizes are more commonly used due to their versatility and suitability for a wide range of young plants. The 24, 50, and 72 cell count trays are particularly popular in young plant farms, with 72-count trays being a standard at MGN Liners. These sizes strike a balance between space efficiency and providing enough room for each young plant to develop properly before transplanting.
MGN Liners catalog includes a comprehensive selection of young plants available for purchase. At our young plant nursery, you can find several plant species such as Agapanthus, Agave, Aloe, Alpinia, Callistemon, Farfugium, Hesperaloe, Nandina, and Yucca in young plant form. These plants are propagated with care to ensure they are ready for successful transplanting and growth in your chosen environment.
We understand the importance of safe and efficient delivery of young plants. Depending on the quantity ordered and your shipping preferences, our young plants are securely packaged in either boxes or on pallets. This method ensures that the plants arrive in optimal condition, ready to be transplanted. At MGN Liners, we prioritize the quality and health of our nursery liners from our young plant farm to your location.
The time it takes for young plants to reach transplant maturity varies based on several factors, including liner size, plant type, seasonal conditions, and cultural practices. At our young plant nursery, the growing time for a 72-cell liner typically ranges from 10 to 24 weeks. For instance, Nandina takes 12-14 weeks to finish, while Agave may require 20-24 weeks. Proper care and conditions at your young plant farm can further influence these timelines.
It’s recommended to transplant young plants within a few days of receipt to ensure optimal growth and development. However, if conditions at your young plant farm are suitable, such as proper light, temperature, and moisture levels, nursery liners can be held for several weeks before transplanting without significant impact on their performance in the final container.
You can purchase young plants from our nursery liners wholesale even if you’re located in a different state. For interstate shipments, we comply with all necessary regulations, including providing a sanitary certificate. Before every shipment, the Texas Department of Agriculture inspects our young plants to ensure they are pest-free and have been treated preventively for Fire Ants within 72 hours of shipment.
We pack our young plants on the day of shipment to ensure they arrive fresh and ready for transplanting. Given that our delivery process is efficient, typically within the same week, there is no need for refrigeration during transport. This approach maintains the health and vitality of the young plants, ensuring they perform well once transplanted at your young plant farm.
