Even root growth – mostly vertical fibre means identical levels of resistance for each root, so roots grow evenly.
Increased root growth – Designed for great air / water balance and faster rooting.
Uniformity – quality and structure is uniform, so water content and EC (CF) will be the same for every plant.
Re wetting – Grodan rockwool is easy to re wet if it dries out, reducing the risk of root damage.
