The Oasis® Hydro-Pro System is a substrate system for hydroponic vegetable production, and is available in a range of configurations.
HYDRO-PRO SYSTEM
A substrate’s air porosity, water content, and Electrical Conductivity (EC) plays a crucial role in a plant’s growth. Generally, higher water content and lower EC in the rootzone steers the plants towards vegetative growth. Alternatively, lower water content and higher EC in the rootzone allows the plants to be steered towards generative growth. OASIS ® Hydro-PRO System is a substrate exclusively developed for hydroponic vegetable production. The substrate allows for precise control of water and nutrient inputs in the rootzone. The substrate is structurally stable, and the desired physical properties are maintained throughout the entire crop cycle. OASIS® Hydro-PRO System consists of plugs, blocks and slabs. We offer two different air to water ratios that fit your growing needs based on climate and production practices. Oasis ® HydroPro Vantage is designed for warmer climatic conditions like the southern US or Mexico. Oasis ® HydroPro Excel is designed for northern climates where water transpiration is lower like Ohio or Canada.
Crop recommendation
Vegetable crops: Tomatoes and peppers
Features and Benefits
- Engineered foam substrate with open cell structure allows precise control of water and nutrient inputs in the rootzone for balancing the vegetative and generative growth throughout the crop cycle.
- Uniform distribution of water and nutrients throughout the substrate ensuring inputs are available for root uptake.
- Promotes the development of a strong functional fibrous root system for optimal growth.
- The substrate is uniform, consistent, and structurally stable to maintain the desired physical properties through the production cycle.
- The substrate is easy to saturate and re-saturate between watering cycles.
- The substrate has a low bulk density that is durable enough for handling but can be compressed and/or shredded for easy disposal.
Propagation media options
HYDRO-PRO PLUGS
OASIS ® Hydro-PRO Plugs are engineered for production of strong, healthy, and uniform seedlings. The plugs have optimal air to water ratio for uniform seed germination. The specialized substrate structure promote faster root growth with increased secondary roots. A more vigorous root system means nutrients can be absorbed more effectively and will result in development of a stronger plant.
