100 Count- Jiffy 36 MM Peat Soil Pellets Seeds Starting Plugs: Indoor Seed Starter- Start Planting Indoors for Transplanting to Garden or Planter Pot

Exactly as described. Works perfect for starting seeds indoors before transplanting outside. Great value for the money

Good seed starters. This year I will put 2 seeds in each pellet, every one started. Easy for to transplant. Have to spray to keep wet. Expansion was good.

Exactly what we needed! Rehydrates best in as hot of water as your tap will put out. So nice to have a 100 count option to buy. Seeds germinated crazy fast in these with a grow light seed starter. We sprinkled cinnamon on top of each pellet after hydrating and planting seeds. Cinnamon is a natural mold inhibitor. Hopefully it works! So far, no mold!

This product works well for plant starts. BUT make sure you remove the netting before up-potting or transplanting. It doses not disintegrate and you will be picking it out of you garden forever!

This is my first time using peat pellets and I am marveled at how wonderful they are. They arrive in a very small package and take up almost no space but they allow you to start so many new plants! In my case I got the 100-pack and started 100 seedlings. Only 2 days later and many of them are already popping out. After you hydrate the pellets they grow and expand but they each stay contained because there is a fine cloth around each one keeping it together. On one of the sides of the expanded pellet you will find an opening (not covered by the cloth) where you can make a small hole and put in your seeds. They are so easy to use and so effective. I will be getting a bigger pack next time!

I would buy again. Fast shipping, good price, and I used them successfully to start my seedlings.

First, let me start by pointing out a glaring omission and large problem with the current description of the product: there is NO SIZE SPECIFIED. Jiffy makes this in at least 30mm, 36mm, 42mm, and 50mm varieties. One recent reviewer claims to have received the 30mm version; another the 42mm version. Personally, I received the 36mm version, so I don't know if it's that different sellers offer different, unspecified sizes (I see toolboxsupply, Root.Naturally, and others, some Fulfilled by Amazon, but Amazon itself does not appear to offer these; for the record, I bought from toolboxsupply) or that each shipment regardless of seller is a random, unspecified, size. I would NOT BUY this product from this listing for that reason. Let me state that I have, however, used these pellets for the last couple years with great luck. They are very easy to use: pour warm water on, per the directions, for the pellets to expand, then start seeds per seed instructions. A plastic cover is included (with the flats, not this product here) as a dome for the flats during germination. I have good luck with germination rates, plus it's less messy than working with "loose" seed starting mix. Additionally, because I grow many of my transplants under lights for a period of time, I like that it's very easy to rearrange these, which is harder in peat or plastic flats where they are all stuck together. They're also very easy to transplant without much disturbance, since the netted "lining" around the expanded pellet is easy to remove (some people say they just leave it on, but it doesn't seem to disintegrate by the end of the season and I don't like dealing with it then). The only problem is that if you let seedlings get too big that the roots start poking through the net, it will be difficult to remove without disturbing them. Unfortunately, the kit I was using was the Jiffy 5032 25-Plant Starter Kit , which accepts 42mm pellets. These 36mm pellets were a bit too small and I was worried they would tip over, so I had to return them. I wasn't even aware that they were so many sizes before this mismatch prompted me to do my research. By the way, the refill part number for the Jiffy 5032 is Jiffy 5777, a 25-pack of 42mm pellets. There is also an Amazon listing 200 Count- Jiffy 7 Peat Soil 42mm Pellets Seeds Starting Plugs that very clearly specifies 42mm. I suspect the 36mm pellets would fit a 36- or 72-plant kit, though perhaps that is the 30mm ones instead (or maybe one for one and another for the other). I think the 50mm ones are just used for the tomato kits. Part of this seems like it would be easy for Jiffy to fix by clearly specifying the sizes on both the trays and the refills, but there is obviously an important problem with this particular product listing in that not only does it not specify, but different buyers seem to be getting different products based on the seller, chance, or some other unknown factor. In summary: these pellets are great, as is the system in general--but don't buy from this particular listing unless you don't actually care what size you get. I'd give the products five stars, but only if you get the right ones. Due to problems with this listing (which does not seem localized to a particular seller and seems to stem from the lack of size specification in the listing), I'm lowering my rating.

Have ordered many times. I use hot water to soak thrm, let sit and plant seeds. Been successful.
