The tool

The hand transplanter

No motor. No maintenance. Anchor the leading pot, walk the row, and a whole chain of 264 seedlings plants itself in about 30 seconds.

The orange hand transplanter loaded with a tray of seedlings on a freshly prepared bed.
A simple hand tool — no engine, no electronics.

A tool, not a machine

Because there is no motor, the initial investment is small and there is nothing to maintain. Anyone can use it — set the chain, pin the first pot, and pull. The chain does the spacing for you.

It's the ideal system for growers raising many crops on small to medium-scale land, where speed and low running cost matter most.

How to use

Four steps from chain to row

Load the chain
Place the raised Chainpot onto the transplanter tray.
Anchor the lead pot
Peel off the leading pot and pin it to the soil with a stake at the start of the row.
Walk and pull
Walk backward, pulling the tool steadily along the furrow. The chain feeds out on its own.
Done — covered as you go
Each seedling is set at a fixed spacing and lightly covered. A chain of 264 takes about 30 seconds.

No motor, no maintenance

It's a hand tool, not a machine — no fuel, no servicing, low initial cost.

About 30 seconds a chain

One chain of 264 seedlings is transplanted in roughly half a minute.

Easy on your back

No bending or kneeling row by row. Anchor the lead pot and simply pull.

Watch

See it planted in one pull

The leading pot is pinned to the soil; from there it is just a steady walk backward as the chain feeds each seedling into the row at an even spacing.
