Open Top Containers
Open Top Containers (OTCs) are popular amongst raspberry growers as they give a controlled environment for precision growing. The homogenous distribution of different particle sizes within the substrate means that growers will see even and fast root development, leading to healthier plants and increased crop yields. Coir OTC’s are dried and compressed during production to give easy transport, storage and handling.
Mix Specifications
Designed to give young raspberry crops the best start, we have two different raspberry coir mixes offering different water contents to suit grower preference and local climate. The specifically chosen particle sizes give rapid hydration and a stable structure, optimising the chances for re-use whilst aiding easy uptake of nutrients from the feed. The washing and buffering process gives a very clean product with elevated levels of calcium to aid rooting in and promote healthy root growth and high yielding plants.
