    • Amazing germination!
Size: 50 Plugs Style: 50 Count
I recently tried General Hydroponics Rapid Rooter Starter Plugs for germinating seeds, and I have been extremely pleased with the results. These little plugs have made the process of starting seeds a breeze. First and foremost, the convenience of using Rapid Rooter plugs is a major advantage. They are pre-moistened and ready to use right out of the box, which saves a lot of time and hassle. No need to soak or prepare them beforehand. No filling trays with soil/ starter, just insert your seeds and watch them take off! The success rate with these plugs has been impressive. I've had a high percentage of seeds germinate and develop strong, healthy root systems. It's clear that these plugs provide an ideal environment for seedlings to thrive. The consistency of the medium ensures even moisture distribution, which is crucial for successful germination. One of the standout features of Rapid Rooter plugs is their compatibility with various growing methods. Whether you're using them in a traditional soil-based setup or a hydroponic system, they work seamlessly. The plugs are also pH balanced, which helps maintain a stable growing environment for your seedlings. Another benefit is their durability. These plugs hold up well over time, and you can even reuse them for multiple rounds of seed starting if you're careful when removing the seedlings. The only minor drawback I've found is that they can be a bit on the expensive side compared to other seed-starting methods. However, the convenience and success rate more than make up for the cost in my opinion. In conclusion, General Hydroponics Rapid Rooter Starter Plugs are a fantastic choice for anyone looking to start seeds successfully. They're easy to use, highly effective, and versatile for different growing systems. I highly recommend them to both novice and experienced gardeners looking to give their seeds the best possible start. These plugs have certainly earned a permanent spot in my gardening toolkit. ... show more

As a couple who enjoys gardening and experimenting with different methods of propagation, we find these rooting plugs to be a game-changer. The Rapid Rooter plugs are incredibly easy to use—simply moisten them before inserting your seeds, and you're good to go. I appreciate the consistency in size and texture of the plugs, which ensures uniform growth and development of seedlings. Additionally, the plugs provide excellent aeration and moisture retention, creating an optimal environment for root growth. What we love most about the Rapid Rooter is its reliability. We've had great success with germination rates, with the majority of our seeds sprouting within a few days of planting. The plugs also make transplanting a breeze, as the roots easily penetrate the material without causing any damage. Furthermore, we appreciate that these rooting plugs are suitable for a wide range of plant species, from herbs and vegetables to flowers and ornamentals. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, the General Hydroponics Rapid Rooter is a must-have for anyone looking to propagate plants efficiently and effectively.

First off, item arrived sooner then expected. The package was securely wrapped and there was no damage to packaging or the product itself. Second, nothing makes starting and transplanting seeds easier. They work perfect regardless of which medium you prefer to use including Hydoponics. They are of good quality and don’t break off into smaller pieces, holds in form through and through. ... show more

    • Great for Rise Garden
Size: 50 Plugs Style: 50 Count
I own a Rise Garden and was looking for a cheaper alternative for their seed pods. This brand works well. I wrap the top in foil, place in the net cups, poke a hole in the top and plant the seeds. These are more moist than the Rise Garden brand and they seem to be more prone to mold, but my plants grew well. I will be buying these again. They are a great value for the money and are easy to use. ... show more

    • When stored and used properly, these are the best!
Size: 50 Plugs Style: 50 Count
Rapid Rooter starter pucks for hydroponics I've used these for a couple of years now as starters for my hydroponics garden. When stored and used properly, they provide excellent, consistent germination. But you need to take a few precautions to get the best results. 1. Store the pucks in a sealed plastic bag. Do NOT let them dry out! 2. Store the bag of pucks in a light-tight container, such as a grocery bag with the top folded over. If you let light get to the pucks during storage, you will grow an interesting array of mold and small plants before you toss the pucks in the garbage and start over. 3. Put one seed in each puck, then place the puck in a small COVERED(!) germination tray. The cover prevents the puck from drying out as the seed germinates. 4. Do NOT add any water to the puck after adding the seed. If stored properly as above, the puck has the right amount of moisture to start germination. If you add water, even a drop, you will end up with damping-off fungus (white wispy fungus) that will kill your seedling. 5. After your seedling germinates, add a drop or two of water ONLY if the puck feels dry. If it feels damp or wet, do NOT add water! With the above tips, I have hit 100% germination rates on everything I try, including tomatoes, peppers, bush beans, and several different lettuces. I usually leave the puck in the germination tray until the first pair of true leaves appear, then move the puck to a hydro bucket. Great product; my hydro garden succeeds because of these pucks. Highly recommended. ... show more
