“Since raising our inclusion rates, we’ve had no issues with the quality of our plants.”

Jeff Murphy

Operations Manager of Production and Maintenance

Altman Plants, Giddings, Texas

“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.”

Mike Spitzner

General Manager

Charles Spitzner Nursery, Long Island, New York

"We are using the 365WB HydraFiber material in our mix. The moisture content is about 55%, and the mix holds together like a loose snowball to give us the best 'loft' during filling. It rolls through the mixing line well and fill the pots nicely. Handling the new mix is a little different…but it's working!"

Chris Bergen

Owner

Bergen's Greenhouses, Detroit Lakes, MN

“Our basil crop finished five days earlier when we trialed in a blend with 30% HydraFiber Ultra 160WB in place of perlite. We’re working closely with their team now to make the full switch to HydraFiber by Fall 2020.”

Marco de Leonardis

R&D Operations Manager / Organic Production Coordinator

Freeman Herbs, Beamsville, ON

"The growers adapted pretty fast to the new HydraFiber media and we didn’t have major issues. Everything we have done is the same as we did with the perlite mix."
