Premium EP-coated steel resists corrosion, moisture, and soil chemicals. Built to last a lifetime of seed starting seasons. - Includes six 3/8" seed pins — which you must insert before your first press. Five for the blocker, one spare. Seed pins create the seed dimple in each block. - Standalone tool — the Mini 5 does not connect to the Ladbrooke nesting system. For the complete Micro 20 → Mini 4 → Maxi progression, start with the Mini 4. - Soil blocks eliminate plastic pots entirely. No pots to buy, clean, store or throw away. Roots air-prune naturally at the block edges — no circling, no crowding, virtually no transplant shock. - The straightforward path to soil blocking — start your seeds, grow them out, transplant directly to the garden. No intermediate block sizes, no extra tools, no complicated steps. - Authentic Ladbrooke — LADBROOKE SOIL BLOCKERS and MADE IN UK stamped on every tool. Not a copy, not a knockoff. The original since the 1960s. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0793MDSKT | | Best Sellers Rank | #234,732 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #368 in Plant Germination Kits | | Brand Name | Ladbrooke | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (306) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05061058960062 | | Item Weight | 0.7 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Ladbrooke | | Manufacturer Part Number | POG.MINI5-1 | | Style Name | Block,Potting | | Unit Count | 5 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Ladbrooke - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 05061058960062 - **Item Weight:** 0.7 Kilograms - **Number of Packs:** 1 - **Style:** Block,Potting ## Images ![Authentic Ladbrooke Mini 5 Soil Blocker — Five 1.5" Blocks Per Press, Made in England - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71x3IEXwpxL.jpg) ![Authentic Ladbrooke Mini 5 Soil Blocker — Five 1.5" Blocks Per Press, Made in England - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61eHn91b+yL.jpg) ![Authentic Ladbrooke Mini 5 Soil Blocker — Five 1.5" Blocks Per Press, Made in England - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71lDtkrDN5L.jpg) ![Authentic Ladbrooke Mini 5 Soil Blocker — Five 1.5" Blocks Per Press, Made in England - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71g4qOoornL.jpg) ![Authentic Ladbrooke Mini 5 Soil Blocker — Five 1.5" Blocks Per Press, Made in England - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61C+HyqvvbL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: what’s the block size? unit dimensions?** A: The Mini 5 makes five soil blocks at a time, which each measure 1-3/8" square. **Q: how can we order additional replacement nipples?** A: The 5/8" standard seed pins may be ordered here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FYDPGMU The 1" Seed Pins (dibbles) may be ordered here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FYGM17K **Q: I ordered 1 like this a few years back.
