Root nutrition powered by Arginex
Peat-free substrate needs a different kind of nutrition. Arginex is positively charged and clings to the negatively charged soil particles like a magnet, peat or no peat.
It promotes root hair growth and the establishment of mycorrhiza, the critical symbiotic interaction between soil fungus and plant roots, which leads to faster plant establishment and healthier plants. This is the new nutrient standard that will work for peat-free formulas.
Arginex is non-living and has a shelf life of five years. This means manufacturers do not need to navigate stock management, cold chain logistics, batch variability, or living cultures.
The new technology will be available to substrate manufacturers in two different formats: Arevo’s standalone branded root nutrition, or as a value-add ingredient to existing nutrition for peat-free substrates - with formulas ‘powered by Arginex’ like computers powered by Intel.
