FAQs
Will it handle warm houses with high VPD?
Yes — the finer cell structure and open matrix stabilize moisture even under high evaporative demand.
Which crops perform best?
Lettuces, herbs, leafy greens (including spinach), and microgreens.
Does singleseed dibbling improve uniformity?
Absolutely — it improves placement, reduces doubles, and ensures even emergence.
Which systems are compatible?
Perfect for NFT, raft/DWC, and recirculating hydroponic systems.
How does it protect root health while holding more water?
The open matrix maintains oxygen availability, preventing oversaturation while promoting rapid rooting
