Desert Nectar Yucca Extract
Desert Nectar Yucca Extract from Elevation Organics is a superior wetting agent and soil
conditioner. Use it to help your plants become more resistant to environmental stresses
while improving the quality of your soil. Desert Nectar Yucca Extract will help water and
nutrients penetrate compact soils with its ability to make water “wetter”. This same quality
helps spray stick to foliage. Also use Desert Nectar to break up accumulated salts in the
soil or irrigation lines and flush them out; stimulate microbial activity in the soil; and give
compost teas a kick with the natural sugars from the Yucca schidigera plant—an evergreen
tree native to the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts. This pure organic extract contains high
concentrations of steroidal saponins. These special compounds enhance a plant’s ability
to absorb water and nutrients and thrive in harsh conditions.
Bed Wetters
Bed Wetters is a soaker
hose watering system
specifically designed
for the Big Bag Bed
and other Smart Pot
products. Made in the
USA and lead free, the
Bed Wetters’ flexibility
allows it to also be used in
round, rectangular, or odd-shaped
containers or pots. Growers can conveniently attach Bed
Wetters to garden hoses, creating a low-pressure soaker
hose that evenly supplies water. Bed Wetters is available
in three sizes: four feet, 10.5 feet, and 13.5 feet. Bed
Wetters will be available in spring 2017.
Dutchpro Leaf Green
Dutchpro Leaf Green is used to achieve
good leaf development in plants,
giving them a healthy, vital look. It is
especially recommended for plants
that have noticeable difficulties with
their development. Leaf Green also
gives plants with a yellowish tinge a
fresh green color. It’s also great at
improving nutrient uptake. Leaf Green
is non-ammonia-based and comes
ready to use as a spray-on liquid. Apply
at least three hours before the lights
go on. Dutchpro nutrients are stable,
clear, and contain organic elements.
They are available in a variety of sizes.
Hydrofarm Heavy-duty Trellis Netting
Heavy-duty, long-lasting polyester trellis netting is indispensable for growers, which is why
Hydrofarm now offers it in a selection of new sizes suitable for gardens and growrooms large
and small. Heavy Duty Trellis Netting is available in a choice of either 3.5-inch mesh or sixinch reach-through mesh, which allows the netting to handle more weight, remain taut, and
provide strong support for growing crops. With 13 measurements, including a six-inch mesh
roll measuring four feet by 3,280 feet, and a six-inch mesh piece measuring 4x8 feet, there’s a
size to suit every need. Utilizing trellis netting helps reduce damage from ground rot, insects,
rodents, and other garden pests while producing bigger, healthier, and earlier harvests. It’s
ideal for tomatoes, beans, grapes, and other vining plants, and is soft enough to protect
tender new growth and fruits.
