“When we switched to HydraFiber, we shaved 5 hours of labor off every zone each week due to plants needing less water. That’s a 5 to 10% labor savings for us. And on some crops, we have been seeing faster rooting, with white roots all the way to the bottom in 9 days on crops that typically take longer.”
"Our company roots are in bark and we have been a promoter of sustainable forestry for many years. Finding a forestry product like HydraFiber to replace non-sustainable raw materials in media was very exciting. It is a technology we are investing in for the long run."
“While comparing plants grown in both our regular mix and in the HydraFiber EZ Blend mix, I’m very pleased with how much healthier the roots look in EZ Blend. Roots are very white and full of root hairs. Our regular blend has a good root system as well…but not the mass amount I see with EZ Blend!”
“Switching to HydraFiber has been one of the smartest moves we have made in the past few years. It has provided outstanding plant quality, and has also made us analyze our entire soil mixing line which allowed us to update a couple things that were maybe a little out of calibration.”
“HydraFiber has really been a game changer for us not only by reducing the cost on the mix, but the availability of it."
