Our coco coir propagation cubes are made from ultra-fine, triple-washed coir pith at our own Tamil Nadu facility. Furthermore, they ship directly from our Cambridge, Ontario warehouse to cannabis LPs, commercial greenhouses, and nurseries across Canada and the USA. Each cube features ultra-low EC and 60–75% water holding capacity. As a result, there is zero transplant shock when moving to the final growing medium.

The entire cohesive cube transplants directly into your final grow bag, slab, or hydroponic system. As a result, there is no root disturbance and no recovery period. Plants continue growing from day one in their final medium without any interruption.
Moisture retention is precisely calibrated to keep roots hydrated between watering cycles without waterlogging. This is critical for sensitive cannabis cuttings and freshly germinated seeds — since overwatering is the primary failure mode in early propagation.
Unrooted cuttings and germinating seeds cannot tolerate salt stress. Consequently, our propagation cubes are triple-washed to ultra-low EC — which provides the cleanest possible starting point for any genetic you are running.
Available as compressed naked cubes, wrapped in biodegradable cellulose paper, or in compostable netting. Furthermore, the wrapping maintains cube shape during transplant and biodegrades naturally in the growing medium over time.
5×5cm works well for clones and cuttings. 8×8cm suits larger cuttings and seedlings. 10×10cm and 10×15cm are designed for commercial nursery transplants. Moreover, custom dimensions and pre-drilled dibble holes are available on request.
There are no import delays from our Cambridge warehouse. It ships bulk wholesale orders to every Canadian province and US state within 2–3 business days. In addition, commercial quantities are always in stock for same-week dispatch.

Our propagation cubes are designed to minimise handling and maximise rooting speed. Follow these steps for best results with cannabis cuttings, seeds, and commercial transplants.
Set cubes in a standard propagation tray or humidity dome. Make sure they are upright and level for even moisture distribution throughout the propagation cycle.
Pour pH-balanced water at 5.8–6.0, or a mild nutrient solution at EC 0.4–0.6, evenly over the cubes. Then allow full absorption for 5–10 minutes before proceeding.
Insert seeds into the pre-drilled opening, or push fresh cuttings 2–3cm into the hydrated cube. For cannabis clones, dip the cutting in rooting gel first for best results.
Keep under a humidity dome at 22–26°C. The coir's balanced moisture retention makes overwatering difficult. Furthermore, check daily and top up as needed until roots appear.
Once roots are visible on the outside of the cube, transplant the entire block directly into your grow bag, slab, or DWC system. There is zero disturbance to the root zone.

5×5cm and 8×8cm cubes work well for clone propagation. Ultra-low EC protects genetics during the critical unrooted stage. Furthermore, direct transplant to coco grow bags ensures zero root disturbance throughout the entire transition.
10×10cm cubes are suited for seedling production at scale. The cohesive cube structure allows mechanical transplanting on commercial greenhouse lines. As a result, cube breakage is eliminated even in high-speed automated systems.
Bulk wholesale supply is available for year-round nursery propagation. Custom hole placement suits different seed sizes. Moreover, compostable wrapping options are available for organic-certified operations across Canada and the USA.
5×5cm cubes work well for lettuce, basil, kale, and herb propagation. They offer ideal moisture retention for fragile germinating seeds. In addition, they are compatible with NFT and DWC systems used in Canadian vertical farms.
10×15cm large-format cubes are designed for strawberry runner propagation. The wrapping maintains cube integrity during high-volume transplant operations — which is critical for commercial berry operations running continuous cycles.
Clean, inert, pathogen-free starters integrate directly with all major hydroponic systems — including NFT, DWC, drip, and media-bed. Consequently, these cubes are a popular choice for vertical farm operators across Canada and the USA.

Avee Cocoseller's coco coir propagation cubes are manufactured at our own Tamil Nadu facility from purified fine coir pith — triple-washed and compressed for efficient shipping. Furthermore, we stock year-round at our Cambridge, Ontario warehouse and ship within days to Canadian and US growers, nurseries, and commercial operations.
Rockwool disposal is a growing concern for Canadian cannabis LPs — it cannot be composted and is classified as inert construction waste. In contrast, coco propagation cubes transplant directly into coco grow bags with no interface gap. As a result, the most common transplant stress point in coco-based systems is eliminated. The entire substrate chain — cube to bag to slab — is 100% coconut and consistent in EC and pH throughout. For more on sustainable propagation media, see this overview of coir growing from Gardeners' World.
We manufacture custom cube sizes, hole patterns, and wrapping options for any commercial greenhouse or nursery setup. There is no minimum on custom configurations for pallet orders. Contact us to spec your order.
Our propagation cubes serve the full spectrum of Canadian and US growing operations — from single-grower cannabis facilities running a few hundred clones per cycle to commercial nurseries propagating tens of thousands of vegetable transplants each week. Bulk wholesale pricing, consistent supply, and custom configurations make Avee the preferred source for serious propagation operations.
We ship from Cambridge, Ontario to all ten Canadian provinces and all 50 US states.
