the detailS<br />
Root Shooters is the ultimate rooting<br />
medium for indoor hydroponic growers.<br />
It solves both the aeration problem and<br />
the “too wet” problem.<br />
It’s made of a peat-based media with<br />
a special proprietary binder to create the<br />
perfect peat-to-air ratio.<br />
This peat and binder combination<br />
helps prevent the disease and pH<br />
issues commonly caused by bark-based<br />
mediums.<br />
Getting your plants to root faster and<br />
develop stronger, deeper, and bigger root<br />
structures means better quality crops and<br />
world-class yields.<br />

Root Shooters’ proprietary substrate<br />
is composed of a unique and uniform<br />
structure with hundreds of “micro air<br />
pockets” evenly distributed throughout the<br />
plugs. Unlike with bark, you get extensive<br />
fibrous root growth throughout the full<br />
depth and dimensions of the plug. And<br />
because there’s no net around the plug, your<br />
plant’s roots will grow fully throughout the<br />
medium immediately after potting.<br />
In addition, this superior structure<br />
gives you ideal water holding capacity<br />
and excellent drainage, so your rooting<br />
medium never gets too wet. This helps<br />
prevent diseases and pests, and reduces<br />
potential losses, especially in overwintered<br />
crops.<br />
Research proves that cuttings grown in<br />
Root Shooters produce a cleaner callous<br />
than in other mediums, which means you’ll<br />

To prevent diseases and pests, and reduce potential losses, Root Shooters’ superior structure gives you<br />
the ideal water holding capacity and drainage, so your rooting medium never gets too wet.<br />
see fewer losses due to rotting. You’ll also see<br />
faster and more prolific root development<br />
because you’ll get more active root nodes<br />
formed at the callous.<br />
And because your plants' root systems<br />
are developed in the plug (not outside of<br />
the plug), your plants will pot much more<br />
quickly. They are also better protected<br />
against root damage and disease, and the risk<br />
of transplant shock is virtually eliminated.<br />
Root Shooters Plant Plugs are supplied<br />
ready-to-use so that you’ll see significantly<br />
faster sticking speeds compared to other<br />
plugs. And, unlike loose-fill substrates,<br />
there’s no additional labor needed to fill or<br />
water trays.<br />
Our extensive testing has proven<br />
potting is much quicker than with other<br />
loose fill plugs, because the Root Shooters<br />
pull from the trays quickly, easily, and with<br />
remarkable consistency.
