Calibrachoa Lime Rate Reduction Study
In this lime rate study, see how increasing your HydraFiber content, and reducing peat in the mix, will reduce the amount of lime needed to achieve optimum pH levels.

"After 30-plus years in the greenhouse industry, I’ve made the biggest changes in my substrate mixers with HydraFiber. After lots of trialing and tweaking, we’re at 55% peat, 25% coir, 25% HydraFiber and it’s working very well. We’re really getting a great, great root system that is going through that substrate, all the way down to the bottom of the pot. In all the years that I’ve mixed soil, I’ve never seen the root systems just permeate the soil ball like they are now. Get a good root system and the plant will come."
"I cannot think of a better partner and working relationship....."
"I like the root system I get from HydraFiber due to the high porosity in the mix."
"Perennials are just beginning to get looked at, but from what I’m seeing, the results with HydraFiber are also comparable to the performance observed in other growing mixes."
"Previously when we would move some of our dormant grass liners to heat, we would see tremendous top growth, but rooting would lag behind and there’s not much you can do to enhance plant quality without good roots. When we moved these liners to a HydraFiber blend, we had a very successful crop – plants grew uniformly and we had good root quality throughout the crop across various varieties.”
