Blending & Filling

Profile/AgriNomix Container Filling Trials

To fill your pots with the proper amount of HydraFiber, at the right compaction rate, you’ll need to make adjustments to your HPU’s belt speed and gate height. This sheet shows what adjustments need to be made and how to make them. To see what the HPU at a proper fill rate looks like, see Getting Good Filling Results with HydraFiber Blends: With Soil Conditioner or Without Soil Conditioner.

"The HydraFiber and AgriNomix teams were excellent to work with as we made the transition. We worked with them to get both our soil blends and the mixing equipment just right."

"We trialed HydraFiber for over a year, in different seasons and tried every crop in it, before we switched over. Get a hold of the HydraFiber guys – they'll mix you a small batch, a big batch, anything you want, run it through its paces, try multiple crops in it. Once we went through the whole process and saw the results, it was an easy decision to switch."

"We’re pretty diverse, doing bedding, succulents, foliage. We’ve not found anything that doesn’t like HydraFiber mix. Our plants have rooted in very well, and we’re happy with what we see."

“HydraFiber has really been a game changer for us not only by reducing the cost on the mix, but the availability of it."

“You’re getting the same thing you’re getting from perlite or vermiculite, but you’re also getting more air porosity, more water-holding capacity, and better plant performance, so it really makes sense to switch to a HydraFiber blend.”
