Put your potting bench in hyper speed
Soil Mixer | The Ground Grinder mini
Speed up your soil mixing
For those growers on the smaller side looking to make life a little easier, STILT.PRO recently introduced the GROUND GRINDER mini – a semi-automatic, bale breaker, soil mixer and flat/pot filler designed with the small grower and garden center in mind.
Load your DIY potting mix in the front through the integrated soil return grate and automatically return unused potting mix. This soil mixing machine will provide an effortless job and a clean workspace.
Change WHO can do the job of filling pots and flats. Normally, you would find the strongest person and let them suffer through breaking up and properly mixing the soil, and then scooping the material into containers. Not anymore, with the GROUND GRINDER mini, all that is needed is to load the bale, add ingredients and turn on the potting soil mixer.

Staple for growers
STILT.PRO expects this machine to be a staple for small growers. Measuring at 36” wide, and a relatively shallow depth, it’s size allows it to be pushed up against a wall or corner of the greenhouse and work right where the work is. Saving even more space, the material is loaded through the return inlet of the hopper without requiring access two sides of the machine, further saving on floor space and versatility.
With a chain and mixer system, you can break up 3.8 cu ft compressed bales, add water, fertilizer, soil amendments and any other secret ingredients to your soil mix. There is additional cost savings by moving from the smaller loose fill bags up to the less expensive 3.8 cu ft compressed bales.
