I get my Jiffy peat from Grower's Solution in Cookeville TN but they ship anywhere: https://growerssolution.com/products/jif42mm?_pos=1&_sid=6401c5dc1&_ss=r

To All,

I purchased several boxes of them at Home Depot within the last month.

Best wishes to all,

Jim Langan

Was just curious why you are using Jiffy peat pellets for peat supply. I used them many years ago but now use Canadian Sphagnum Premium Organic Peat Moss which I buy in bulk bags.

I use the Jiffy 703 because that is what Ed Warner suggested and because it is easy to process. I have used the big peat bale peat before but it needs more processing (boiling and boiling and boiling). The Jiffy peat was much easier.

I have used the coco peat also but have gone back to the Jiffy peat because it keeps moisture much longer.
