THE CHALLENGE
Root Health
Strong Roots Begin with a Better Growing Environment
PROBLEM
The Challenge
Roots need water, air, space, nutrient availability and drainage in a balanced growing environment.
Low aeration
Roots require oxygen within the growing medium.
Waterlogging
Long saturation can increase root stress.
Compaction
Restricted pore space limits root expansion.
