Tubes are specially engineered for durability, heat absorption and gas exchange
- 300 ft pre sealed tubes with pre cut planting holes
- perforated micro aeration holes allow for evaporation and gas exchange
- UV inhibitors allow tubes to last for up to 4 years
-Allow separation from infested, contaminated or unarable land
-Traps moisture and nutrients for maximum absorption and nutrient efficiency
v 5 Mil extra heavy duty Polyethylene Grow Tube (300 ft sectional) specially formulated by blending co-polymers to achieve strong tear and puncture resistance; also provides flexibility and elasticity providing optimal system durability.
v Contains UV inhibitors for High UV resistance
Pre-cut Planting holes (3” diameter) in equal 12” distance of triangle pattern between plants. This is a commonly used planting pattern for strawberries as it maximizes space for growth.
v Perforated with micro aeration holes (2mm in diameter) and 1” apart throughout the surface of the grow tube to allow gas-exchange. The perforations provide an outlet for evaporation and also enable gas exchange for substrate aeration.
v Solid tubing promotes efficient water and fertilizer use by minimizing drainage and using efficient drip irrigation techniques which require less water.

CocoPeat substrate
- Buffered with Calicum Nitrate
- Sterile production
- Phytosanitary processes to insure that substrate is pathogen free
- Preferred growing substrate for hydroponic systems
-Retains water better than any other growing media
- Easily rewets
- Does not shrink, crack or crust
- Is not hydrophobic when dry
-Excellent air porosity for root aearation adn root development
- expedites rooting, germinatioin and establishment
- promotes faster growth.
Grow Media Substrate-Coco peat
v Buffered Coco-peat grow medium Substrate compressed to 96 x19.5 x1.5cm (H); 1.25kg in each Plank.
v Expanded to 100 cm (40”) in length x 20 cm (approximately 8 “) in width and 2” (3.5 times expansion) in height inside of encasement when irrigation system is connected and activated.
v Compression technique minimizes lateral expansion. Expansion occurs mostly in height.
v Coco peat retains water better than any other growing media. It hydrates easily and does not shrink, or become hydrophobic when dry. Coir of Coco peat has good air porosity allows good root aeration and development of fine roots, faster germination, establishment and growth.
v Coco peat products should be washed and treated (CPQ red.) to be made suitable as a growing medium. These products usually have a very high ec value caused by sodium- and potassium chloride. Coco peat products are not inert, and if not treated, coco peat binds a lot of Ca (calcium) and Mg (magnesium), while it releases Na (sodium) and K (potassium). Untreated coco peat may lead to shortage of Ca and Mg in cultures.
v The buffered process - coco must be buffered and therefore fully saturated with Calcium and Magnesium before it is available for the plant.
