Jiffy Preforma Plugs

Preforma Plant Plugs Tailor‑Made for Professional Propagation

What They ArePreforma plugs are a fully customizable propagation system.

You choose the tray format and the substrate — peat, coco fibre, blends, with or without perlite — and Preforma binds it into a clean, uniform plug that works smoothly in any automated greenhouse environment.

The result is a plug that fits your operation instead of forcing your operation to fit the plug.

Why Growers Choose Preforma True FlexibilityAvailable in nearly every tray format used in horticulture.Any shape, any size, any cell count — filled with the substrate you prefer.

Optional dibbles or cutting holes for precise seeding or sticking.Optional transplanting hole to accept a smaller plug, eliminating transplant shock and root disturbance.

The plug continues growing without interruption, reaching transplant size faster.

Superior Rooting PerformanceExtremely uniform substrate with hundreds of micro‑air pockets throughout the plug.

Encourages dense, fibrous root development from top to bottom.

Fully bound structure prevents compaction during transport or irrigation.

Holds water well while maintaining excellent drainage — ideal for reducing losses in overwintered crops.No netting around the plug, allowing roots to expand freely after potting.

Cuttings form cleaner callous with less rot compared to traditional propagation media.Increased number of active root nodes at the callous, driving fast, multi‑point root development.

Description

Tailor-Made Plant Plugs :

The Preforma plant plug system is probably today’s most flexible growing system available.
You, the grower, chooses tray and substrate out of the wide range of Preforma choices available; making the ‘custom tray-custom substrate’ combination a perfect fit for your operation.
Manufactured from the highest quality substrates, held together with a unique binding agent, the Preforma plant plug is suitable to work in any highly automated green – house environment, without exception.

> Flexibility :

Preforma plant plugs are available in almost every existing tray format used in the horticultural industry, making it a ‘Tailor-made plant plug’ system for every propagator.
Most trays, no matter what shape or size, can be filled with one of Performa’s wide range of media, from peat substrates to coconut fibre, a mix of both, with or without perlite.
Additional seeding dibbles or cutting holes can be provided as required by the customer.
As a specialty, Preforma plant plugs can be provided with a transplanting hole to accommodate a smaller second plant plug, eliminating transplant shock and root damage.
The plug basically keeps growing without interruption and will be ready for final transplant faster.

> Rooting :

Extremely uniform substrate and a structure with hundreds of micro air pockets evenly distributed throughout the plug.
This stimulates superior fibrous root growth throughout the full depth and volume of the plug.
As the substrate is fully bound, there is no compaction with transport or irrigation.
This superior substrate structure holds water well, maintains excellent drainage properties, conserves water, and reducing losses particularly in overwintered crops.
The absence of a net around the plug allows the roots to develop optimally after potting on.
Cuttings grown in Preforma produce notably cleaner callous than in other propagation substrates, and far less rot.
The number of active root nodes formed at the callous is increased substantially, and stimulates fast multiple root development
