ABSTRACT:
A system for transferring and transplanting plants from a plant supply tray includes a first table having a plurality of matrix openings for holding the plant supply tray, where one or more plants are removed from the tray via the matrix openings. The first table also includes an indexing frame that positions the plant supply tray such that the one or more plants from the plant supply tray are aligned with the plurality of matrix openings. The system also includes a second table that holds a plant receiving area, a supporting frame that holds and aligns the first and second tables relative to one another, and a plant removal mechanism for removing the one or more plants from the plant supply tray. The supporting frame positions the first table above the second table such that the supply tray is located above the plant receiving area and the one or more plants removed from the supply tray can be transferred directly to the plant receiving area on the second table via the plurality of matrix openings in the first table.
