EnerGroTM Potting Mixes will improve the quality of your potted plants and flower gardens through its unique formulation. EnerGroTM produces plants with greater mass and bloom rates than standard peat-based potting mixes. Not only does EnerGroTM improve the quality of plants, it also aids in protecting the environment.
The main ingredient in EnerGroTM Potting Mix is a co-product of anaerobic digestion on dairy farms. The anaerobic digestion process produces renewable energy as it removes the odor, pathogens, and weed seeds from dairy manure. The fiber produced during this process retain their organic fertilizer value and have unique characteristics, such as high moisture retention, which make it an ideal replacement for peat moss in potting mixes.
Through extensive research and development with an independent soils laboratory, the digested fiber was formulated into potting mixes. Studies were performed utilizing geraniums, petunias, and azaleas to develop the ideal formula that maximized both stem weight and bloom rate. This formula is now commercially available as EnerGroTM.
