Soil Solutions for Commercial Vegetable Growers
Managing commercial vegetable operations comes with unique challenges. Our biological soil amendment, H-Start, is designed to enhance the growth, health, and yield of your vegetable crops, ensuring you achieve the best possible results.
Why Choose H-Start for Your Vegetable Crops?
Strong Roots, Resilient Plants:
Using H-Start, your vegetable fields will benefit from improved growth rates and resilience. Healthy, robust root systems and increased above ground biomass maximize your crop’s potential by accessing water and nutrients.
Improve Nutrient Availability:
H-Start increases microbial diversity to support your crop accessing nutrients from all soil sources – applied and stored. H-Start increases breakdown of organic matter in soil increasing organic matter.
Reduce Soil-Borne Disease Pressure:
Beneficial microbes dominate the surface of plant roots, reducing the impact of soil-borne disease by outcompeting and suppressing soil-borne pathogens. Increasing soil permeability and porosity through more com plex plant roots system contributes to reducing soil-borne disease impact.
Mitigate Difficult Growing Conditions:
Increasing the density of beneficial fungi and bacteria supports your crops to improve the support systems for your crops. Your fields have variability including texture, topography, organic matter and soil pH. Other factors like salinity (EC>2.0), compaction, poor water infiltration and soil aggregation, all contribute to stressors for your crops.
Optimized Soil Health:
High disturbance tillage reduces microbial populations and soil aggregation. H-Start improves soil structure and fertility, promoting robust root development and nutrient uptake. This leads to healthier plants and increased crop potential.
