Once planted out, plants grown in these
pots not only have a considerable reduction in
growing time, but are also guaranteed
quick rooting in the surrounding soil and
immediate growth. Thanks to its specially
developed air-system (due to the side
holes), once the roots get in touch with
the air and light, they stop their circular
pattern. In this way, the side root system
does not go into stress and the growth of
the stem is faster and more vigorous than
in a standard pot.
• Develops the root system more quickly
• Improves drainage
• Keeps the root system healthy
• Anti-spiral action
• Improves the growth of the plants
• Reduces the stress caused by transplantation
Use the right substrate to get the best result
It is possible to improve this result, by carefully
choosing the kind of substrate to be used with the
Ercole pot. A compact and well-draining substrate
improves the development and root system of the
plants grown in Ercole, because this pot creates an
environment similar to that of an open field. The
best substrate to be used is a particular mix of
peat, coco fiber, coco pith and a controlled release
fertilizer. The coco fiber allows for major water
retention and gives the substrate a structural
stability, increasing the capacity of the mutual
exchange between water and air. All of these
factors demonstrate how a wise choice of
substrate affects the results in a remarkable way,
both technical and commercial, when growing in
the Ercole pot.
