Loved the Seed Pods

You wouldn’t believe how compact these seed pods are, but they expand to a good amount of soil and my sprouts are now beginning! As long as things continue to go well, I would DEFINITELY buy these handy little guys again.

Looks Promising

It was easy to put the seeds in the soil pods. I look forward to terrific healthy pepper and tomatoe plants in a few weeks.

Q: how long are the soil pods good for.

Customer Support

2015-03-15

A: Hi Pam! The soil pods don't actually have an expiration date. Just store them in a cool/dry/dark location and they will last for many years.

Ana

Q: Is the soil in these pods organic? And the material that surrounds the pod... what is it made of?

Customer Support

2015-03-15

A: Hi Ana! They are not "certified" organic however they are made from all-natural compressed peat moss. They are wrapped in a thin, degradable net.

Q: on your web sight is says to plant 4-5 per container is that true for all seeds

Customer Support

2015-03-15

A: It depends on the variety. Typically with the smaller seeds such as peppers/tomatoes/basil/etc you'd want to put around 4-5 seeds per pod. However, the larger seeds such as squash/cucumber/pumpkin/beans you can put 2-3. Then you can "thin" them out to keep the strongest looking sprouts. Here is more information about "thinning": seedsnow.com/pages/getting-started-thinning Hope this helps!

Q: I asked these questions on Monday the 9th. It's now the 14th and I've not yet received a response. I'm going to assume the inquiry got lost in transmission. Here are the questions again.

1) Is the soil in these pellets organic?
2) What is the outer portion of the pod made of?

Thank you,
Ana

A: I purchased seeds about 150 of the pods that you are asking about. They had better be organic because I have an organic farm and I started a lot of seeds in them. I assume they are organic because I purchased all organic seeds. The outer portion of the pod is some type of easily decomposing burlap netting, it seems. I don't know the exact fabric composition. Hope that helps. Good Day!

Customer Support

2015-03-17

A: This is a review that we got from a customer: "I am not sure if the soil is technically considered organic, but when a company works as hard as SeedsNow does to be GMO free, they are not likely to sell soil products full of chemicals and pesticides. I trust them fully :) As for the outer container, it is made of a biodegradable netting. I am not sure what the actual material is, but it is safe to put directly in the soil from my experience. It holds together well when the seeds are being started, but is weak enough for the roots to break through once transplanted into more soil. Hope that helps!" -Sydni Hadden

Q: When it is time to transplant, do you just plant the whole pod?

Karen R.

2015-03-20

A: Yes, I plant the whole pod, to not disturb the new seedlings. I have plants coming up from your seed I purchased with the pods, yahoo, spring is here!!

Customer Support

2015-03-20

A: Hi Marcy - You would typically want to transplant your seedlings once you start to see the roots coming out from the bottom. Here is a great post for tips and tricks on starting seeds: seedsnow.com/blogs/news/16515489-tips-for-successfully-starting-your-seeds-indoors Hope this helps!
