“Since raising our inclusion rates, we’ve had no issues with the quality of our plants.”
"HydraFiber does definitely wet easier than our other mixes…it has helped us get plants wetter right after transplant. We have not changed anything in our fertilization program, which has been an easy transition. Everything we have done so far with HydraFiber, we have not seen any issues with any plant having any adverse conditions at all."
“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!”
“We were impressed, not only with its ability to retain water, but also its ability to have porosity at the same time, which almost seems like an oxymoron, but it definitely happens. HydraFiber holds water and doesn’t dry out as quickly, but at the same time, when it’s wet, it doesn’t turn into mud or mush.”
"Switching over to HydraFiber has been very nice and given us more time to focus on our mixes. We used to use two people in our soil room in the busy season, with a lot of perlite loading. The smaller HydraFiber bales let us use one person all day long, and he never falls behind loading HydraFiber and peat moss on the line. And HydraFiber keeps the place clean and dust-free. To him, it’s a dream back there!"
