Should I remove my seedlings (when they're ready to Transplant) from my 4 inch Jiffy Pot before placing them in the hole I'll dig in the soil in my 7-gallon fabric pots? Or can I just place the whole Jiffy Pot directly in the hole of the 7-gallon pot? (which would be best?) Thanks!

hey Sledrock, if your talking about these Yes i would remove the plants from the peat pots before transplanting... I found out from my last grow that if you plant the pot and all, they do not break down very well, which leaves your plant in a tight root ball trying to get out of that peat pot. 2nd pic peat pots are still visible and i cut lots of holes and slices before i planted them. The plants will thank you. happy growing!Shappel S3000 3.5x6x6' ice hut

Thanks Homegrown for the Good Advice! I'll definitely be taking the seedlings Out of the Peat Pots before transplanting...
BTW - how'd you get those seedlings to get such Thick Stems? Nice!
I use VipraSpectras, too and I Love 'em! Curious, how far do you keep your light above the soil when starting seeds? And do you use those Vipars or something else?

When I used Jiffy's, at 5-7 days after sprout, I would moisten bottom and lower 1/3 well, gently tear away and place in moistened, prepared (Great White myco) hole. Now I germ/sprout in Jiffy pellets, remove bottom netting and place in final pot the day after sprout. Good growing to you.Attached FilesComment

Sledrock i use peat pots exclusively. Once I see roots poking though the pot, I bury the pot in the permanent pot thus saving them the shock of transplanting. Been doing this for 10 years. I go from seedling to peat pot to permanent pot.Comment
