     Jiffy peat pots are the all natural approach to seed starting.  Made from Canadian sphagnum peat moss and wood pulp, jiffy pots come pre-formed and ready for planting.
       Jiffy peat pots are the ideal choice for indoors seed starting.  Jiffy pots are soft walled peat pots that allow plant roots to naturally air prune as they emerge through the pot.  This allows for greater root development and aeration in the root zone.
     Jiffy peat pots also make transplanting a snap!  Since the jiffy pot is biodegradable, there is no reason to remove the plant from the peat pot.  When it comes time to transplant, you simply bury the pot and all.  Jiffy pots will degrade over time, giving the plant vital nutrients, while protecting the root system.  Jiffy pots practically eliminate transplant shock.

 

Directions for Jiffy pot seed starting:

  1. Fill the jiffy pots with your favorite loose fill potting soil, or other seed starting medium.

  2. Give the jiffy pots a thorough watering and let drain to remove any excess water.

  3. Sow your seeds according to the directions on your seed packet.

  4. Cover jiffy pots with either plastic sandwich bags or use our seedling flat & propagation dome.

  5. Place the jiffy pots in a dark place with adequate bottom heat until most of the seeds have germinated.

  6. Remove bags or humidity dome and move the jiffy pots into direct sunlight.

We ALWAYS recommend following the directions on your seed packet as certain types of plants may have special germination need. The general steps laid out above will work for most seeds and give you a great start towards learning how to start your own plants

As with anything, practice is the best teacher and it won't be long before you develop your own method for successful seed starting & plant propagation.
