Module trays
Module trays made of recycled polypropylene which is strong and durable.
The trays have wide holes at the bottom that enable plants to be pushed up easily and also improve drainage. The tapered cells require less compost and result in no waterlogging around the roots. The polypropylene creates smooth and solid cells that help plant rootballs slide upwards with little or no damage to the plant roots, and none to the tray.
More information in these YouTube videos:
The trays are available in three sizes – 15, 30 and 60 cell. Cell size is the same in all of these trays, the only variable is number of cells per tray.
Available from the following distributors (prices vary so best to check the individual websites).
UK: Containerwise / The Refill Room
Ireland: Quickcrop
The Netherlands: The Farm Dream
Denmark: FantastikeFroe and Barney DK
Norway: Lindholm gård
North America: All About The Garden
Australia and New Zealand: Sow your Seeds (Tasmania)
Long-handled ash dibber
These are made in the UK by an expert woodturning company. As you would expect for a product of this quality, the dibber is superbly sanded and finished with the best product available, Danish Oil.
The latest model features grooves notched into the timber at precise intervals to help with spacings between plants.

I worked with Crocus to create this collection of gardening essentials.
Black Gold Organic All Purpose Compost by Urban Wyrm
A top potting mix and general compost made using 30% worm casts, and 70% garden-waste compost sieved to 3mm.
Copper tools by Implementations
Beautifully made copper tools. My favourites are the Castor trowel, Hydra hoe, and … Orion spade. A spade? So good when planting trees and shrubs, plus for removing stem roots of brambles.
I notice improvement in growth from using this when watering. I find it also softens the water here. It’s just magnets, with no moving parts, a long lifetime and no maintenance.
Covers from Gardening Naturally
This is a great site for fleece, mesh and bird netting, for warmth and pest protection. Also for traps for codling and plum moths.
Newton Gravity-Powered Water Filter System
Although not a gardening recommendation, I think a lot of gardeners who grow their own food are interested in their health. I'm a fan of this water filter.
Trimmer and shredder
The hedge trimmer I use is a Stihl HLA 85. It’s so quick, and quiet!
The shredder I use is electric, a Bosch AXT 25 TC, which chops and crushes up to 45mm diameter.
Continue your no dig journey by taking one of Charles's flagship online courses
I came to the course hoping to get a few ideas for our school’s gardening club and left feeling inspired. Whilst we only have a small space and limited funds I can see a way to create something significant using No Dig.
