Great thanks. We grow our own from seed and plant them bare root also (into
plastic mulch). We wanted a transplanter for this year but the budget
didn't allow for it...

14,000 onions by hand with a stand and plant for us. Next year we will get
one.

Does the model 122 plant in bare soil or plastic. How close can you plant
with it?

It's an old transplanter we bought from EBay last year. It is the model 122,
and really a tobacco planter. We can't really get a close enough spacing
using it, but with so many onions and being short on time... we'll plant out
as many as we can using it, and then go back and spot over and fill in the
rest by hand. These are not plugs but onion plants we bought.
We have used this transplanter for everything and it works great. It's a
huge time saver for us.
