HydraFiber - Specialty Short Fiber for Horticulture
HydraFiber Specialty Short Fiber serves as an effective replacement or supplement for peat moss due to its physical similarities. This engineered fiber specializes in applications for smaller cells by retaining all benefits of the original HydraFiber Engineered Media but utilizing shorter fibers. It is particularly suitable for incorporation into propagation mixes as an alternative to substrates such as perlite. Made from 100% engineered fiber sourced from renewable materials, the product boasts a high compression ratio of 13:1, optimizing it for efficient shipping and storage. Notably, HydraFiber requires specific processing equipment to achieve its maximum yield. From a performance standpoint, these fibers offer superior water-holding capacity and high air space advantageous for vegetative liner production and seed germination. This product is engineered with meticulous care to offer consistency and performance for horticulture professionals.
