Jiffy-7

Increased Returns

Jiffy-7 offers growers quicker rooting due to the airpruning
of roots which stimulates strong, fibrous
root development within the plug. This can result in
a decrease in crop cycle times of up to 25% in addition
to producing stronger, more compact plants.
Unlike other discrete plugs, Jiffy-7 is supplied in a
dried compressed form allowing the grower to store
un-used plugs until the next crop cycle without
wastage. Efficient storage on the nursery is also a
benefit as the Jiffy-7 occupies less than one
quarter of the space of other discrete plugs.
The plugs are easily re-hydrated by
hand or during the normal irrigation cycle.

Convenience

All Jiffy-7 sizes feature a pre-formed
soft centre for easy insertion of even
the smallest cuttings. The fully
enclosed capillary net allows easy
mechanical or manual handling of the plugs without
loss of substrate and extends the transplant window.
All Jiffy-7 plugs contain a specially formulated fertiliser
to provide the best start for your young plants. Short
term crops need no further feeding before potting on.
Polyroll offers unrivalled convenience by providing
plugs pre-spaced on a perforated polythene or capillary
fleece underlay. Plugs are spaced to the growers
requirements and the length and width of the under
lay can be made to fit individual benches ensuring
maximum use of bed space.
All pellet-pack trays feature a picture label slot to allow
secure attachment of a label without damaging a plug.

Extensive Range

Plug sizes available from 18mm to 44mm diameter
either loose in cartons or pre-loaded in a range of
growing trays. Tray options range from 25 cell strips
to 144 cell full size growing trays. Plugs can also be
pre-spaced in the growing trays ensuring there is a

Jiffy-7 solution to suit all crops and growing

requirements.

All trays feature the unique Jiffy air-prune design,
which ensures the plug is held firmly within the cell
whilst still allowing free air movement around the
plug, minimising root diseases and maximising
root development.

 

Environment

Jiffy-7 Pellets are manufactured
from sphagnum peat
(and Coir fibres) harvested from
carefully selected bogs which are
subject to stringent internal and governmental
controls to ensure minimal
environmental impact. Peat is only taken from
sources where the re-generation rate is greater than
the harvest rate and the local ecology will not be
adversely affected. The addtion of 25% coir fibres
makes Jiffy-7 suitable for reduced peat production.
