I love jiffy pellet i use them with my NFT system i soak them then squeze excess water out and leave it in a unheater prop for 2 days no light then use a 80w seedling/clone cool light. Ive had 100% success so far... mite be just luck. but i water very few times in the first week or so.

as i use nft i just move the jiffy pellet into a net pot filled with cellmax (small rockwool cubes) and i have no drying problems cus of nft :thumbsup:

I can see how for some they arent the right thing but they do have great growth in the first week over rockwool when using water no nutes
