Conifers

Many propagation methods

Conifers grow in many different regions around the world. Most species are propagated from seed or unrooted cuttings. Some are produced through somatic embryogenesis or tissue culture propagation. Professional and hobby growers use Jiffy Pellets for all of these methods. We can help you choose the right growing media for your conifers.

The Jiffy Pellet advantages

Our pellet system eliminates the need for a root ball or cage to handle or extract the seedling from its cavity. The Jiffy Pellet is the container and media in one, so the seedling can be handled at any stage of development.

No more root deformation

All Jiffy Pellets are designed to prevent root deformation. Thanks to the PLA net covering, the root system is not disturbed, eliminating transplant shock and growth delay.

Efficient seeding

Conifer seeds can be mechanically seeded into the compressed Jiffy Pellets. The seeded pellets are then loaded onto carrying trays in their dry state and expanded in your greenhouse or nursery using the irrigation system.
