HydraFiber EZ Blend Towers
HydraFiber® EZ Blend doesn’t require any additional specialized equipment to process, so it’s ideal for operations that utilize pad mixing or bucket blending. Greenhouse growers use it as a consistent alternative to raw materials like peat, perlite and coir. EZ Blend towers maximize cost-effectiveness by shipping in a highly compressed 95-cubic-foot tower — so you’ll save on freight costs and use more room for production, not storage.
- 4:1 tower requires a front-end loader or shovel to separate materials prior to blending
- Mixes easily with other media substrates; the HydraFiber experts will guide you on how much nitrogen (N) to add for best results
- OMRI Listed for Organic Use
- For optimum wettability, we recommend that a surfactant be added to EZ Blend at time of blending. Guidelines are available on request.
- Available in 95-cubic-foot towers
