| SPECIAL USES |
|

In this greenhouse a Row Mulcher was adapted for use as
a tender for a pot filling machine. It saves constant
running back and forth with a skid steer loader to keep
the filler loaded with potting mix.
A Row Mulcher saves a lot of time and labor for this nursery
operator applying mulch for wintering over protection
on container grown nursery stock |
