The propagator is designed to take 10 Coir compost plugs (peat-free) and can be re-filled once the seedlings are potted on. See the 'Images' tab above for a picture of the kit contents and an example of chilli seedlings growing away.

Apart from the pencil and the plant markers, all the components of this kit are available separately. Chilli seed germination and plant growth needs a temperature of at least  20c.  To increase the speed of germination and the growth-rate of seedlings during the colder months,  use a warming mat or thermostatic heating mat (see our other chilli growing products).

Chilli Focus is an ideal feeding programme for chillies. It can help produce healthier more vigorous plants and colourful, juicier fruits.

Pack of 20 Coir compost plugs (37mm, peat-free).

Just add warm water (about 40ml per pellet) and watch them grow! They rehydrate instantly and expand to about 60mm high by 40mm wide; the perfect home for a single chilli seed. These dry pellets are the right size to fit our propagator and growing kit.

No need for pricking-out; just transplant the entire pellet when potting-on.

Coir is a byproduct of the coconut industry.

 

 

This is the same propagator we sell for our Chilli Growing Kits - designed to take 10 Coir compost plugs. Add 400ml of warm water to rehydrate 10 coir plugs.  Place one or two seeds into each pellet and close the compost over them to cover.

Once the seedlings are big enough to pot-on, simply refill with new coir plugs and get another batch going.

Two of these fit on our warming mat, and 8 will fit on the thermostatic mat.

Once the seedlings have germinated, it is best to move the propagator to a sunny spot and remove the lid on hot days.

 

See some additional images on the 'Images' tab.

H: 18cm, L:38cm, W:24cm. Made in England. 

When your seedlings need potting-on from Jiffy-7 plugs, a 1Ltr (14cm/6") pot is the ideal size. For some of the smaller chilli plant varieties, no further potting-on is necessary.  This pot is ideal for the window sill.

The saucer supplied is more like a drip tray: Chilli plants don't like to stand in water, so a shallow saucer reduces the chances of the roots becoming too wet.
