Fourteen days from now your crop’s roots will probably be dead. The good news is, it is all part of a natural cycle of root regrowth.
Roots die off about every 14 days and maintaining a constant cycle of root growth and development is critical to maximising the yield potential of all crops.
Supply critical nutrients
Stoller’s RootFeed supplies the critical nutrients that crops need for root growth, including nitrogen, calcium and magnesium.
These feed continuous root growth and maintain strong and healthy root systems, even during stressful periods.
It also contains Stoller’s co-factors which are designed to encourage the development of new roots.
Consistent application
A crop’s root system is effectively its ‘brains’.
Four of the main hormones that plants need to grow are produced in the roots.
Crops need a strong and healthy root system at all times, but it is particularly important during cold weather when nutrient uptake can slow, reducing root and top growth.
Consistent application of Stoller’s RootFeed is important to support new root growth and development. Apply every 7–14 days. It is ideal for injection in micro-irrigation systems.
