Description
Grodan partnered with the Wageningen University and Research Facility and top growers from all over North America to determine the optimal stone wool substrate and irrigation strategies for indoor and greenhouse specialty crops. The result of this scientific rigour is Grodan Gro-Blocks Improved with our Advanced Wetting Agent. These leading-edge blocks have the optimal fibre structure and physical properties for crop uniformity, more even Water Content (WC) and Electrical Conductivity (EC) distribution throughout the entire block. Water distribution is more uniform throughout the entire block which is the basis for a well-defined root system with higher capacities for water and nutrient uptake to produce robust and vigorous crops. These benefits translate into higher yields, improved quality, less water and nutrient usage, and reduced sensitivity of the crops to diseases.
