Oasis® Wedge®

Image of Oasis® Wedge Growing MediumOasis® Wedge® growing medium tapers in shape from top to bottom.

This unique shape aids in directing root development downward for rapid root development, resulting in greater crop turnover and overall productivity for the grower. In transplanting, the Wedge product minimizes the need for dibbling. Each cell is singulated, therefore there is no tabling of the fibrous root systems. Products come preloaded in either strip or tray and are immediately ready to use by a grower upon receipt. This format is ideal for automation and simplifies the packaging and shipping process. Wedge media comes in a wide variety of choices to suit many pant needs.
