Agricultural soil discs (peat moss)

10 discs of agricultural soil (peat) Jiffy Peat Pellets• Peat discs are considered one of the easy agricultural solutions, especially at home, and they are an ideal environment for germination. Its specifications: lightweight and expand once soaked in water until its size doubles, and it has the ability to absorb water several times its weight, more than 30 times, and it also has a high capacity to store water, in addition to its ability to drain excess water due to its porosity exceeding 95%, which helps in better plant growth. Covered with a mesh of natural fibers that are biodegradable so there is no need to remove it when you want to transfer the plant to another soil, and roots can penetrate it without any damage. The soil has a low pH level, which contributes to good plant growth. It differs from regular soil as it is free from weed impurities and seeds, and it is also free from harmful chemicals and salts. Germination method in the discs: first, soak them in water and leave them for a few minutes, then they will be ready for germination. Dig a place for the seeds at the top of the soil, then place the seed and cover it with soil no more than 1 cm. Place in a germination tray with cells proportional to the size of the discs or in a plastic container, or it can be placed directly in the soil. If there are no separators between the discs, make sure to leave space between them so the roots do not entangle after growth. Watering is done with a spray nozzle — to prevent the seeds from being washed out due to the force of water — or by immersing the bottom of the discs in water. It is preferable to cover the discs in a box to keep the soil moist for as long as possible.
