For big results, start small with Plantra Grow Tubes.
Standing in a newly planted pistachio orchard of 20,000 trees, first planted 6 weeks prior as tiny 2 inch tissue culture stock and now uniformly emerging from 2ft Plantra Grow Tubes, we asked the ranch manager how many replants he had to do.
His answer: Six. Not six hundred. Not sixty. Just 6.
But to him the real benefit of using Plantra Grow Tubes wasn’t the remarkable survival success rate.
It was the incredible growth rate that would grow the rootstocks he planted to field budding size in a matter of weeks.
To the orchard manager the real benefit was: Healthy, on-site root development.
More and more orchards are making the change: Instead of planting large trees and risking the root deformations that often result from the transplanting process, they are planting smaller stock and allowing the trees to develop a healthy root system from the get-go.
With Plantra Grow Tubes you can…
• Go straight to the orchard with small planting stock – at any time of year – and allow your trees to develop proper radial root structure without spiraling, encircling or J roots
• Reduce your re-plants, even as compared to large planting stock
• Get your orchard into production in less time
This year, put Plantra Grow Tubes to the test against traditional orchard establishment methods. You’ll be amazed.
