36mm XL Forestry Jiffy Peat Pellets

These 36mm extra large (XL) genuine Jiffy® pellets are a commercial grade compressed peat pellet suitable for a range of horticultural applications including:

• Seed Propagation - ideal for producing compact, uniform and hardy seedlings with improved germination and transplanting.
• Cutting Propagation - ideal for the vegetative propagation of many softwood & semi-hardwood plant varieties.
• Other applications - also suitable for many other horticultural applications including hydroponics.

As the name suggests Jiffy®- compressed peat pellets are made of mildly acidic (pH: 5.2 - 6.6) compressed peat. The use of a peat substrate may be more suitable for the germination of certain plant varieties (i.e. Blueberries), for the propagation of cuttings of others (i.e. Hydrangea) as well as a popular choice for many deep-rooted forestry varieties. As these pellets expand to around 75mm tall, they are suitable for a range of cuttings which may be too small for smaller pellets.

Jiffy® pellets provide the convenience of optimal water retention, therefore generally require watering once every few days, unlike sand, vermiculite and peat mixes which require frequent watering.

The range of Jiffy® products including pellets are a professional grade product used widely by the nursery industry in Australia. For instructions on how to use these Jiffy® compressed peat pellets, please see our Seed Sowing Guide for Jiffy Pellets.
