Reusable Grow Mat
Cut to fit StarterKit and AutoKit channels exactly, so moisture stays even across the full surface with no gaps and no bunching. 70+ cycles per mat, and your annual soil cost goes to zero.
Specifications
Dimensions: 9" x 30" (23cm x 76cm)
Grow Area: 1.88 ft² (1,742 cm²)
Material: Reusable grow mat
Uses per mat: 70+ cycles with proper care
Compatible system: StarterKit and AutoKit 9" x 30" grow channels
Performance and Use
These mats support even germination by distributing water consistently across the growing surface. The material provides stable root support while maintaining proper moisture balance, helping reduce dry spots, oversaturation, and uneven growth.
Suitable for both microgreens and baby greens across a wide range of crop varieties when used with proper irrigation and handling.
The precise 9" x 30" dimensions are designed to fit StarterKit and AutoKit channels exactly, consistent contact across the full channel surface means consistent moisture and consistent results every cycle.
Durability and Lifespan
Designed for commercial environments, the mats maintain their structure through repeated handling, cleaning, and reuse. With proper care, each mat is rated for 70+ grow cycles.
Reusable construction reduces waste and lowers long-term replacement costs compared to disposable growing media.
To extend mat life:
- Remove roots gently after each harvest
- Rinse with clean water between cycles
- Allow to dry fully before reseeding
- Inspect periodically for wear or damage
- Store flat when not in use
Compatibility and Integration
The 9" x 30" mat is designed specifically for StarterKit and AutoKit 9" x 30" grow channels. The exact dimensions ensure full contact across the channel surface with no gaps or bunching.
This mat is not compatible with Commercial Production Rack channels. For CPR systems, use the 9" x 72" mat. For standard 10" x 20" soil tray setups, use the 10" x 20" mat.
The mat integrates directly into your existing StarterKit or AutoKit workflow with no modifications required. Seed directly onto the mat surface the same way you would with soil media. After harvest, roots pull out cleanly, the mat rinses easily, and it is ready for the next cycle the same day.
Cut for StarterKit and AutoKit 9" x 30" channels
This mat is built to fit StarterKit and AutoKit grow channels precisely. The exact dimensions give consistent contact across the full channel surface with no gaps, no bunching, and no uneven moisture. If you are running either system, this is the mat for it.

The cost math over time
Soil media, per cycle
Soil, media, and disposal cost every single cycle. Adds up fast across a full AutoKit season.
Reusable mat, per cycle
At $14.95 per mat over 70 cycles, your cost per use drops to cents. No soil. No disposal.
Savings over 70 cycles
Per mat, compared with single-use soil media. Multiply across all 20 AutoKit channels.
Cost figures are estimates based on a $14.95 mat price and typical media costs. Your numbers will vary with supplier and volume.
Precision fit for StarterKit and AutoKit
Cut to match StarterKit and AutoKit channel dimensions. Consistent contact across the full surface means consistent moisture and consistent results every cycle.
Consistent cycle after cycle
Even moisture distribution and stable root support mean your crops finish the same way every time. Less guesswork, fewer dry spots, more predictable harvests.
Works for microgreens and baby greens
The 9" x 30" mat performs reliably for both crop types. Switch between microgreens and baby greens without switching mats.
Durability and lifespan
The mats hold their structure through repeated handling, cleaning, and reuse. With proper care, each mat is rated for 70+ grow cycles.
After harvest, roots pull out cleanly. Rinse the mat, let it dry, and it is ready for the next cycle the same day.
Proper care extends mat life
- Remove roots gently after each harvest
- Rinse with clean water between cycles
- Allow to dry fully before reseeding
- Inspect periodically for wear or damage
- Store flat when not in use
Which mat fits your system
The 9" x 30" mat is cut for StarterKit and AutoKit channels. If you are running standard soil trays, the 10" x 20" drops into those. The Commercial Production Rack uses the 9" x 72".
