NextGen Growplug – Technical Product Sheet - not sealed package

NextGen Growplug is the ideal solution for propagating seeds and cuttings, thanks to its balanced composition of 50% white peat and 50% washed, buffered coco coir. These pre-fertilized plugs provide an optimal environment for rapid and vigorous root development, while ensuring ease of use and safety for plants during transplantation.

The peat and coco mix is designed to maintain a perfect air-to-water balance. Peat effectively retains moisture, while coco promotes proper aeration, ensuring a stable, moist environment that stimulates long, robust root growth and an increase in root hairs. This makes NextGen Growplugs the perfect choice for anyone looking for safe and quick plant propagation.

The plugs are provided in a dry state, making them lightweight and mold-free. They come with a pre-formed hole for easy seed or cutting insertion, eliminating the risk of damaging fragile plant material. The drainage holes in the tray prevent overwatering, promoting stronger and healthier plant growth.

• Do I need to fertilize the plugs? They are slightly fertilized, but once roots form, a light nutrient feed is recommended.
