HYPERroots is ready to use and does not require preparation
Proterra has announced a sustainable, proven gel grow medium, HYPERroots, enabling propagators to achieve higher yields consistently, with minimal OpEx. HYPERroots radically reduce the amount of water required to grow food and enables unprecedented control and certainty about crop outcomes, consistently and reliably, thus supporting automation and freeing time for growers to build their businesses.
HYPERroots is ready to use and does not require preparation, a differentiator from most other grow mediums on the market today. The substrate is naturally pest and pathogen-resistant, resulting in the elimination of common pests such as fungus gnats, whiteflies, soil aphids and thrips, and has almost no watering requirements.
This firm hydrogel substance is composed of water (98 per cent) and natural organic material (2 per cent). It’s biodegradable, rapidly compostable, sourced sustainably, organic, vegan, and kosher (certifications pending).
Available in a variety of formats, sizes and nutrient formulations, HYPERroots also offers custom nutrient recipes and formats to meet customer specifications. Currently available across the US, Canada and Mexico.
