Worried about ordering live pepper plants online? You're not alone. Shipping a live plant through the mail seems like something that shouldn't work. Fears of receiving dead, damaged, or severely wilted plants are certainly understandable.
But, through rigorous research, testing, and evaluation Pepper Joe's has developed a proven process for successfully shipping healthy live pepper plant seedlings to doorsteps across America.
Whether you're having trouble growing pepper plants from seed, or just don't want to deal with all the equipment, care, and patience needed for seed germination – Pepper Joe's has you covered with a variety of 4-6 Inch pepper seedlings available for online ordering.
Here are the 5 main reasons you can feel confident in buying live pepper plants from Pepper Joe's.
1. We Ship Plants Fast – 5 Days a Week
Just like all our pepper products, we ship live plants fast – Monday through Friday. This ensures that plants get from our greenhouse into your hands quickly and healthily. In most cases, plants will spend only a couple days in their boxes before getting to you.
2. We Ensure Plants Have the Necessary Moisture They Need
Just before shipping live plant orders, our team of pepper experts carefully hand wraps the roots of each seedling (which are grown in a rock wool material) with a moist paper towel. Then a piece of clear plastic is put around the towel to encapsulate the roots with the moisture supply and prevent any leaking.
3. We Created Custom Plant Shipping Boxes
Next, each seedling is placed in a biodegradable peat pot that fits perfectly in our custom plant shipping boxes. The pots and tabs in the box ensure a stable hold on the plants to help minimize shaking and shifting during its journey to you. These custom boxes work well for both 2-Pack orders and 4-Pack orders of plants.
4. We Provide Detailed Instructions on How to Successfully Harden & Transplant
Once the plants arrive, we're still committed to ensuring you have the information you need to properly handle, transplant, and harden off your new pepper plants. Instructions are printed directly on the inside of the box. The same instructions are also found on a card insert that you can remove from the box for later reference.
5. We Stand By Our Live Plants with a Satisfaction Guarantee
At the end of the day, everything we do and offer for sale is focused around giving you the best possible product and making it easy for you to experience and enjoy all the unique benefits that hot peppers have to offer. If for any reason your live plants arrive dead or in poor condition, please get ahold of our dedicated team within 48 hours of receiving your plants. Whether it's giving you specific tips for saving the plants, or sending out replacement plants – we'll work to make it right.
