Cube to bag. No gap.
Propagation cubes — coco coir from clone to harvest.
Made from ultra-fine, triple-washed coir pith at our own Tamil Nadu facility. Because the cube and your grow bag are the same material, there's no interface gap and no pH mismatch — just one continuous root zone. Ships from our Cambridge, Ontario warehouse across Canada, the USA, and Mexico.

Engineered for cannabis cloning, seed germination & propagation.
The cube is the same material as the bag it transplants into — that single fact removes the riskiest moment in propagation.
Engineered for minimal transplant shock
The entire cohesive cube transplants directly into your final grow bag, slab, or hydroponic system, keeping the root ball intact and undisturbed.
60–75% water holding capacity
Moisture retention is precisely calibrated to keep roots hydrated between watering cycles without waterlogging — critical for sensitive cannabis cuttings and freshly germinated seeds.
Safe for fresh cuttings
Unrooted cuttings and germinating seeds can't tolerate salt stress. Our propagation cubes are triple-washed to ultra-low EC — the cleanest possible starting point for any genetic.
Naked or biodegradable wrapping
Available as compressed naked cubes, wrapped in biodegradable cellulose paper, or in compostable netting. The wrapping holds cube shape during transplant and biodegrades naturally over time.
4 standard sizes, plus custom
5×5cm suits clones and cuttings; 8×8cm suits larger cuttings and seedlings; 10×10cm and 10×15cm are built for commercial nursery transplants. Custom dimensions and pre-drilled holes available on request.

From cutting to transplant in 5 steps
Designed to minimise handling and maximise rooting speed — for cannabis cuttings, seeds, and commercial transplants alike.
Place in tray
Set cubes in a standard propagation tray or humidity dome, upright and level for even moisture distribution.
Hydrate
Pour pH-balanced water at 5.8–6.0, or a mild nutrient solution at EC 0.4–0.6, evenly over the cubes — allow 5–10 minutes for full absorption.
Plant
Insert seeds into the pre-drilled opening, or push fresh cuttings 2–3cm into the hydrated cube. Dip clones in rooting gel first.
Maintain
Keep under a humidity dome at 22–26°C. Check daily and top up as needed until roots appear — overwatering is hard to do with this medium.
Transplant
Once roots are visible on the outside of the cube, transplant the entire block directly into your grow bag, slab, or DWC system.

Who uses Avee coco coir propagation cubes
Cannabis licensed producers
5×5cm and 8×8cm cubes work well for clone propagation. Ultra-low EC protects genetics during the unrooted stage, and direct transplant to coco grow bags minimizes root disturbance.
Commercial tomato & cucumber
10×10cm cubes suit seedling production at scale. The cohesive cube structure allows mechanical transplanting on commercial lines, eliminating breakage even at high speed.
Plant nurseries
Bulk wholesale supply for year-round nursery propagation, with custom hole placement and compostable wrapping options for organic-certified operations.
Leafy greens & herbs
5×5cm cubes suit lettuce, basil, kale, and herb propagation, with ideal moisture retention for fragile germinating seeds and compatibility with NFT and DWC systems.
Strawberry & berry
10×15cm large-format cubes are built for strawberry runner propagation. The wrapping maintains cube integrity during high-volume transplant operations.
Hydroponics & vertical farms
Clean, inert starters — heat-treated and pathogen testing and Certificate of Analysis availability must be confirmed for the ordered batch — integrate directly with NFT, DWC, drip, and media-bed systems — a popular choice for vertical farm operators.

Buy coco coir propagation cubes in Canada — factory-direct from Avee Cocoseller
Avee Cocoseller's coco coir propagation cubes are manufactured at our own Tamil Nadu facility from fine coir pith, washed and compressed for efficient shipping. Confirm current availability at our Cambridge, Ontario warehouse and ship within days to Canadian and US growers, nurseries, and commercial operations, with Mexico distribution expanding.
Why growers are switching from rockwool to coco cubes
Rockwool disposal is a growing concern for cannabis LPs — it can't be composted and is classified as inert construction waste. Coco propagation cubes, by contrast, transplant directly into coco grow bags with no interface gap, eliminating the most common transplant stress point in coco-based systems. The entire substrate chain — cube to bag to slab — is 100% coconut and consistent in EC and pH throughout. For background on propagation methods more broadly, see this overview of plant propagation from Gardeners' World.
Custom configurations for any greenhouse setup
We manufacture custom cube sizes, hole patterns, and wrapping options for any commercial greenhouse or nursery setup, subject to custom-production minimums confirmed in the quote. Contact us to spec your order.
