Calculation method
Calculation method
Plants per tray
ceil(rows/row stride)×ceil(columns/column stride), first cell occupied.
Required trays
ceil(plants/capacity).
Empty chosen positions in last tray
Trays×capacity−plants.

Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Tray grid, chosen spacing pattern, plant count. Returns Tray requirements and empty cells. All coefficients and observations are user supplied; results describe only the stated mathematical model. Quantities are deterministic calculations from supplied observations and assumptions; no external data is fetched. Supported limits: Finite inputs only; numeric fields bounded as labelled. Lists and JSON records are limited to 256 entries unless a stricter tool bound is stated. No automatic design approval, legal conclusion, treatment recommendation or safety certification. Tray grid rows: minimum 1, maximum 1000. Tray grid columns: minimum 1, maximum 1000. Chosen row spacing in cells: minimum 1, maximum 1000. Chosen column spacing in cells: minimum 1, maximum 1000. Plants to place: minimum 1, maximum 1000000.
