Webinar: Coir Chunk Media - A Good Choice For Long-Term Crops

Posted by Amanda Gallagher|June 5, 2013

Growing media manufacturers are looking for new components that can be added to their growing media to improve physical properties and address common problems that the grower and/or end user face. One such problem the homeowner experiences with peat-based growing medium in hanging baskets and long term-planters is that they are hard to re-wet with water after they have dried out.

Join Horticulture Specialist Troy Buechel on Tuesday, June 11 at 2 p.m. Eastern, 11 a.m. PacificÂ for this informative webinar to learn how Premier Tech Horticulture is addressing this issue with a new growing medium called PRO-MIX HP-CC. This product contains a unique coir chunk that does not require a wetting agent to wet and helps to hold water while maintaining good air porosity. Find out how this unique product and ingredients can help reduce long-term wetting challenges for you and your customers.

Also did you know that a chunk coir product is a viable alternative to bark in growing medium? With recent increased use for bio-fuel, there is a genuine concern about bark supply. PRO-MIX HP-CC can be an economical replacement for a bark growing medium. Now might be a good time to find bark-based growing media alternatives in case supply becomes limited.
