How to Mix HydraFiber Towers with a Ribbon Blender

In this video, you'll learn how to add a HydraFiber tower to your substrate mix using a ribbon blender. It includes example measurements so you can determine the percentage of HydraFiber you want in your mix, and footage from real growers so you can see the process in action.

"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."

"I like the root system I get from HydraFiber due to the high porosity in the mix."

"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.”

“Adding HydraFiber to our production has been seamless, especially with our larger containers.”

“From what we’ve seen, the pH of poinsettias stays more stable because of the length of the crop. Also the shelf life is better because the HydraFiber retains the moisture and when it’s sitting on the shelf longer at the store, it’s pulling that moisture out of that wood. We’re seeing several more days at retail which is a huge benefit.”
