Hi,

Starting to get my stuff together for this next year and was wondering about recommendations by the seed manufacturer regarding plug size. I will be trying New Guinea Impatiens Divine next year and am finding this

Sowing
The recommended plug sizes are 288 to 128-cell.

Is there a specific reasoning behind the small cell plug? I usually use a 72 cause I dont need that many plants, but am very curious about why the smaller one. Any info greatly appreciated. Thanks.

To maximize the production for commercial sales, I would assume... to produce more plants (to be potted on into larger pots for bedding plant sales) in the minimum space.
