How To Choose Right Growing Medium
The growing medium is very important in soilless cultivation, so we have to know how to choose the medium correctly, which requires the medium not only to have the nutritional conditions of the soil, but also to be suitable for crop growth, and to improve management efficiency.
The substrate of soilless cultivation needs to be considered comprehensively according to 3 conditions:
1. Plant root adaptability
In the soilless cultivation, each plant growing medium has a common advantage: it can create excellent environmental conditions suitable for plant growth, which is what we usually call the water to steam ratio. Some plant roots need both good ventilation and sufficient water. Our products-Ten-lead Hydroponic Growing Cube can meet these conditions. Ten-lead Hydroponic Growing Cube retains moisture well, so there is less situation of water-starve. It also retains oxygen well, so there is less chance of overwatering. Hydroponic Growing Cube never impedes the development of roots.
2. Whether the substrate is suitable for planting
The growing medium that is usually suitable for soilless cultivation has strong chemical stability, neutral pH, does not contain toxic substances, and is of moderate size. Take a simple example, straw and crop residues can be used as medium in many areas, but it can cause problems in the conversion of nitrogen in the soil.
Ten-lead Hydroponic Growing Cubes, made from phenolic foam, have good chemical stability, non-toxic and pollution-free. Hydroponic Soilless Cultivation Cube is biodegradable, after a period of time, it will degrade completely without polluting the environment, so it is an important planting medium for modern agricultural production.
3. Whether it is economical or not
In addition to the properties, it is also necessary to consider the price of the medium. Some may be more suitable for soilless cultivation, but the price is too high or it is more difficult to obtain, then it becomes less suitable. We have our factory , the factory's name is Fujian Ten-lead Advanced Material Co., Ltd. So we can give you the good price and we can guarantee the quality of our hydroponic growing cube.
The perfect hydroponic growing medium needs to meet the requirements of plants, have a cheap price, be non-toxic and harmless, and the labor cost also cannot be too high.
