Usage recommendations

• Place the dry pellet in a suitable container and pour in warm, clean water; allow it to swell.
• Once it has expanded, drain off excess water so the substrate is not too wet.
• Sow the seeds or place the cuttings directly into the pellet.
• Maintain moderate moisture, but avoid waterlogging — slight drying is better than water retention.
• Once the plants have grown sufficiently, the pellet can be planted directly in soil or a larger container — there is no need to remove the net, minimizing root damage.
• After use, the net decomposes in accordance with biodegradable standards, making the product environmentally friendly.

Benefits

The Jiffy-7 41 mm pellet combines substrate and container in one; when moistened, it becomes an ideal medium for seed germination and plant rooting. Its high porosity and suitable chemical properties support root development, while the biodegradable net allows direct planting without stressing the plants.
