Jiffy Tomato Pellet Refill Pack - 50mm - 16ct

Jiffy Tomato Pellet Refill Pack - 50mm 16ct - Expandable Peat Pellets for Jiffy Greenhouse Systems

Jiffy Tomato Pellets are expandable compressed peat pellets that swell into ready-to-use growing cells when moistened with warm water. Each pellet expands to create a self-contained growing environment with excellent moisture retention and aeration to support seed germination and early seedling development. Jiffy's largest peat pellets, these are ideal for starting tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, and other crops that develop larger, more complex root systems before transplanting. This 16ct refill pack is designed to restock your Jiffy greenhouse system and keep your seed starting season going batch after batch. Fits 16- and 36-cell Jiffy Tomato Greenhouse systems.

Key Features & Benefits

• Expands with Warm Water: Compressed peat pellets expand quickly when moistened, eliminating the need to pre-fill cells with loose growing media - ready to use in minutes.
• 50mm Pellet Size: At 50mm, these are Jiffy's largest pellets - providing the root volume that larger-fruited crops need during early development before transplanting.
• Peat-Based Growing Media: Natural peat provides excellent moisture retention, natural acidity for seedling health, and the loose, airy structure that emerging roots need to establish quickly.
• Refill Pack Format: 16ct pellets per pack - sized to refill your Jiffy greenhouse without over-purchasing surplus pellets that require storage.
• Transplant-Ready: Plant the entire expanded pellet into soil - the outer netting holds the peat together and breaks down naturally after transplanting, allowing roots to grow through without restriction.

Who Should Use This

Designed for home gardeners, hobbyists, and small-scale growers who use Jiffy greenhouse propagation systems and want to continue running additional seed starting batches after their initial supply of pellets is used. Particularly valuable for growers starting tomatoes, peppers, and other warm-season fruiting crops indoors before the outdoor growing season.

Compatibility

Fits 16- and 36-cell Jiffy Tomato Greenhouse systems. After germination and early growth, transplant the expanded pellet and seedling directly into your garden bed, raised bed, or container - no bare-rooting required. Compatible with standard humidity domes and heat mats for improved germination rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use Jiffy peat pellets?

Place pellets in your Jiffy greenhouse tray, add warm water, and allow pellets to expand fully - typically 2-3 minutes. Once expanded, make a small hole in the top of each pellet, insert a seed or cutting, and keep moist until germination or rooting occurs.

Do I need to remove the netting before transplanting?

No. The outer netting is biodegradable and breaks down naturally in soil after transplanting. Plant the entire expanded pellet directly into your growing media - roots will grow through the netting without restriction.
