Description
VidaWool™ blocks are designed for optimum dispersal of water and nutrients, and to create an even root zone for growth. Hydro-Xtend™ water dispersion technology prevents dry zones in the block, so you can feel confident plants are getting the moisture and nutrients they need to keep growing.
As plants enter their second stage of growth, VidaWool™ blocks provide the space and uniform water and nutrient distribution they need to continue thriving. Equipped with a UV-protection liner and Hydro-Xtend™ water dispersion technology, VidaWool™ blocks are intelligently designed to deliver healthy, even root zones and consistent crop performance. Mineral wool growing media provides the ultimate steerability to the grower and eliminates the messy, time-consuming processes of other growing media, like filling pots and mixing materials.
VidaWool™ performance is validated by third-party experts, to ensure your blocks perform as expected during the vital second phase of plant growth. The team of scientists and technicians behind VidaWool™ have developed these best practices for using your VidaWool™ blocks. 1. Store VidaWool™ blocks do not need to be housed in a climate-controlled environment but should be kept dry until use. Store pallets no more than two high to avoid damage. 2. Saturate and condition Saturate blocks by submerging for up to 1 minute in a nutrient solution adjusted to a pH of 5.5–6.0. As an alternative, spray with the nutrient solution until the entire block is completely saturated. Allow the blocks to drain for a couple of seconds before positioning them on your growing surface. 3. Transplant plugs Pick and place VidaWool™ starter plugs directly into the block. No added force or shaping required. 4. Let’s grow Use your desired fertigation system to deliver water and nutrients to the VidaWool™ blocks, and the HydroXtend™ water dispersion technology will distribute it throughout the root zone to grow healthy plants
