As producers of plant growing solutions, we understand and share the main concerns that revolve around coffee growing, as we know that the industry faces the challenges of a world increasingly focused on sustainability, traceability and working conditions. <\/p>\n
Under this premise, it is essential to find efficient and environmentally friendly ways to produce the best coffee seedlings.<\/a><\/p>\n That is why we will answer the most frequent questions that our customers usually have about coffee seedbeds with Jiffy Pellet<\/a>.<\/p>\n As a coffee grower who cares about the environment, working conditions and the production of the best coffee in the region, it is essential to find sustainable and effective solutions at all stages of cultivation, including the planting of coffee.<\/p>\n At Jiffy Group, we explore and develop innovative alternatives to reduce production costs and overcome logistical challenges. For coffee, we have solutions that seek more sustainable growing processes, for example, Jiffy Pellets.<\/p>\n Jiffy Pellets are peat or coir pellets, made at high temperatures, and compressed into a biodegradable mesh, ideal for the development of various crops, such as coffee.<\/p>\n This solution guarantees vigorous root growth and eliminates the use of plastics, protecting the soil and improving working conditions. In this way, we also avoid soil-transmitted diseases, as well as damage that the plant may suffer in the future.<\/p>\n Everything depends on the soil, since the conditions for the establishment of the plant depend on it. For example, if you have clay soil, regardless of the solutions you use to plant, you will have a series of limitations, mainly due to the drainage problems that this type of soil has.<\/p>\n The important thing in these cases is the agronomic work. In the previous example, a solution that was implemented for the use of Jiffy Pellets was to make ridges to plant coffee.<\/p>\n That is, it can be planted in any type of soil, as long as the necessary adjustments are made so that the plant can grow well in the field.<\/p>\n Unlike traditional bags, with Jiffy Pellets, the roots of the plants that are ready to go to the field are not deformed thanks to the PLA netting that they have.<\/p>\n The Jiffy Pellets generate a photopruning effect which prevents the so-called "pigtails" or "root twisting" from forming. This allows the seedlings to be in the nursery for longer. It is suggested to move them to the field when they have already 3 or 4 pairs of true leaves.<\/p>\n In general, we could summarize the advantages of sowing with Jiffy Pellets as follows:<\/p>\n Using this innovation is simple and makes the growing process more efficient.
