How does TerraCottem boost plant growth?
The TerraCottem soil conditioners are much more than a polymer. What makes TerraCottem unique is the synergetic effect of all its components on plant growth. Water savings is an essential TerraCottem benefit, but most of our professional customers value the increased root growth, the healthier plants, the higher survival rate, the better plant establishment and other advantages equally.
- The carefully selected hydro absorbent polymers – there are different types of superabsorbers in TerraCottem - increase the water retention of the soil or growing medium. Almost all water inside the polymers is plant available: this results in an optimal water use efficiency and water savings of up to 50%. TerraCottem’s hydrogels absorb not only water but also the nutritive elements within that soil solution. TerraCottem can retain more water.
- And also, our carrier materials are, amongst other things, selected on their CEC.
- The different types of fertilisers offer a balanced nutrition program based upon macro and microelements.
- The real secret lies within the presence of the root growth stimulators. These growth precursors play a vital role in the initial growth phase of the plant. They activate root cell elongation and differentiation. As a result, roots grow quicker to depths where more water is present.
