Abstract
Tray assemblies are provided for use in treating and planting batches of seeds. In one example embodiment, a tray assembly includes a first tray and a second tray configured to couple to the first tray. The first tray includes multiple wells each configured to receive a seed. And, the second tray includes multiple openings configured to align with the wells of the first tray when the second tray is coupled to the first tray. The tray assembly also includes a first divider positioned between the first tray and the second tray, and a second divider coupled to the first tray. The first divider is configured to allow selective movement of seeds from the openings of the second tray to the wells of the first tray, and the second divider is configured to allow selective movement of seeds out of the wells of the first tray.
