Each plug carries a stepped dibble hole in the top: a wider entry point sized for seed, and a narrower, deeper channel beneath it sized to take a cutting, so the same plug works for either propagation method without needing a different product for each.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the plugs are supplied dry, they store for a long time with no risk of mould developing in the bag, which makes them easy to keep as a standing item in the propagation cupboard rather than something that has to be used immediately after opening. Before use, plugs are steeped overnight in a solution of Root!T First Feed at 5ml per litre of water to fully hydrate them, at which point they are ready to take seed or a fresh cutting. The unique octagonal shape of the cells in the matching tray leaves a small air gap around each plug, which air-prunes new roots as they reach the cell wall and encourages faster, more branched root development once the cutting is potted on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeing natural and biodegradable, the plugs break down harmlessly into the growing medium or soil once potted on, so there is nothing to remove or dispose of separately at transplant time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeat-free\u003c\/strong\u003e - made from natural, biodegradable coco coir fibre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorks for seed or cuttings\u003c\/strong\u003e - stepped dibble hole suits both propagation methods in one plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong shelf life\u003c\/strong\u003e - supplied dry, resistant to mould, stores easily until needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAir-pruning design\u003c\/strong\u003e - pairs with the Root!T 60-hole tray's octagonal cells to encourage rapid root branching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo clean-up at potting on\u003c\/strong\u003e - plugs are biodegradable and break down naturally into the substrate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hcs-specs\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug material: coco fibre and natural polymer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug size: Ø32mm x 38mm high\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack: refill bag of 60 plugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreparation: steep overnight in Root!T First Feed at 5ml per litre before use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with: Root!T 60-hole propagator insert tray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Root!T","offers":[{"title":"Refill Bag of 60","offer_id":53500716777738,"sku":"prop-root-t-plugrefill-60","price":11.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/7127\/5786\/files\/grow-media-rootit-dry-pest-free-propagation-rooting-cells-40129398538455.png?v=1786377580","url":"https:\/\/hydrocropshop.co.uk\/products\/root-t-plug-refill-bag-60","provider":"Hydro Crop Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
