Hydrophilic cotton plugs are intended for seed germination. In order for a seed of any crop to germinate in a cork, it is necessary to first soak it with water, then make a depression in it, place the seed there and cover it on top. The corks must be moistened periodically in order to preserve moisture. Then the plugs are placed in cassettes or boxes and covered with a dark film until the sprouts appear. After sprouts sprout (of sufficient size), the plugs are transplanted into the ground (street,greenhouses, etc.) Size 5x5x6 cm.
ADVANTAGE: 1) Basalt cork favors the growth of the root system (allows it to breathe and develop better) 2) Accumulates and retains moisture directly near the roots (which allows to reduce the amount of water for irrigation and the frequency of watering) 3) Ecologically clean and safe, does not contain any harmful impurities and most importantly - without harmful resins (phenolic, etc.) RESULT: good development of the root system, retention of moisture directly near the roots and reduction of watering.
The most important positive factor of a cork made of basalt fiber is the saving of water for irrigation (at least two times). It accumulates and retains moisture directly near the roots, as well as reduces the frequency of watering - this will save your financial expenses on water and time. info.
