HydraFiber Heroes: Tim Van Der Hengst, South Central Growers, Inc.

Tim Van Der Hengst, head of production at South Central Growers, Inc., discusses how HydraFiber has been a game changer for his operation, providing healthier roots and plants with minimal cultural or growing changes.

"We’re pretty diverse, doing bedding, succulents, foliage. We’ve not found anything that doesn’t like HydraFiber mix. Our plants have rooted in very well, and we’re happy with what we see."

Corwin Graves

"Our decision to align with HydraFiber was a significant move but also a natural choice. The Profile team is fully committed to getting growing media right for growers. They are highly professional and very progressive in finding ways of bringing their technology to the market."

“Switching to HydraFiber has been one of the smartest moves we have made in the past few years. It has provided outstanding plant quality, and has also made us analyze our entire soil mixing line which allowed us to update a couple things that were maybe a little out of calibration.”

Bobby Barnitz

Vice President

Bob's Market and Greenhouses, Inc.

"For the end user in a patio pot or basket, we see a lot of benefits from HydraFiber in not having to water as much and growing a bigger, better, healthier plant."

Ric Stevens

Sales Manager

Heartland Growers, Westfield, IN

“Our basil crop finished five days earlier when we trialed in a blend with 30% HydraFiber Ultra 160WB in place of perlite. We’re working closely with their team now to make the full switch to HydraFiber by Fall 2020.”
