Root Riot Plugs, 1500 Count | Composted Cubes for Seeds and Clones

What Makes Root Riot Plugs Work for Propagation These are composted natural materials pressed into a spongy plug, not rockwool and not peat pellets. That texture is the whole point. It holds an air to water ratio a new root can work in, staying damp without going anaerobic the way a saturated cube does. Each plug arrives moist with a hole already formed in the top. They are inoculated with micronutrients and biologically active ingredients, which feeds a cutting through the days before it has roots. This box holds 1500 of them and weighs about 57 lbs, which puts it squarely in nursery territory. They suit seeds and cuttings equally, and they drop into soil, coco or any hydroponic system without a transfer step. Getting the Most From Root Riot Cubes Moisture management decides how these perform. They should feel spongy and damp rather than saturated. If a batch has dried out in storage, a soak in lukewarm water brings them back. Keep unused plugs sealed in their bag, because once they dry in open air they are slower to rewet evenly. Room temperature is what you want when you stick a cutting. For clones, cut diagonally just below a node and strip back to a couple of leaves. Dip in rooting gel and set the cutting into the pre-formed hole. Do not push it deep. Just far enough to stand up on its own is right, and forcing it crushes the structure that holds the air. Cover the tray and keep misting. For seed, drop it in the hole and keep the plug just moist enough that water comes to the surface under a squeeze. The honest caveat is the count. Fifteen hundred plugs is a nursery quantity, and a home grower will see the bag dry out long before the box empties. Key Features Composted natural material: A spongy structure that holds air and water together rather than choking roots. Pre-formed hole: A cutting or seed drops straight in with no dibber and no guesswork on depth. Supplied already moist: Ready to use out of the box, and a lukewarm soak revives any that dry out. Inoculated with micronutrients: Feeds a cutting through the window before it has roots to feed itself. Seeds and cuttings both: One medium covers germination and cloning, so the bench runs on a single item. Transplants whole: The plug goes into soil, coco or a hydroponic system without disturbing the roots. 1500 count box: Nursery volume at a per plug cost a small bag will never match.
