 OASIS®
Growing Mediums are rigid, open-celled, water-absorbing foams,
specifically designed for optimal callus and rapid root formation.
Outstanding performance is due, in part, to the unique cell structure,
which closely resembles the cellular structure of the plant itself.
The composition of the foam anchors the plant and provides capillary
action for feeding water to inserted cuttings. These mediums offer
the propagator many advantages. For more information about OASIS

Poinsettias
For over 25 years, OASIS® Growing Medium has been the product of choice for the propagation of Poinsettias. Choose the product that best fits the spacing needs of each variety for maximum results.
Geraniums
Specially designed OASIS Growing Medium for geraniums provides flexibility in spacing and provides the proper rooting volume for great results time after time. The wedge shape allows fast transplanting.
Vegetative Spring Plants
Several options are available for the propagation of New Guinea Impatiens and Fuchsia and other spring plants, depending on cutting size. All the propagation systems offer dependable rooting success with excellent uniformity. Finished products are lightweight to reduce shipping costs, and transplant faster - thanks to the self-dibbling wedge shape.
Hydroponics Food Crops
 LC-1
Horticubes® Medium has high drainage characteristics, making
it the product of choice for herbs, lettuce and almost all plants
that are seeded. Sheet materials are scored and/or channeled for
easy separation.
Perennials/Woody Plants
Special needs for perennials are met with the high performance characteristics of OASIS® Grower Products. All products can be used, depending on plant size, root type and spacing requirements. Wedge-type products are favored, due to faster rooting and ease of transplanting.
Foliage
OASIS® Grower Products has a propagation product suitable for almost all foliage plants. Space and plant size will dictate the best product selection. As an example, Crotons root particularly well in the OASIS WEDGE® 10 strip, demonstrating superior results compared to other methods.

SOAX® WETTING AGENT
 Commercial
horticultural producers use liquid SOAX® Wetting Agent Concentrate
in constant feed injection programs to improve growth media water-holding
capacities and distribution of nutrients for their entire crop
cycle. Commercial growers that prepare their own growth media
mixes, blend either a liquid or dry powder formula into the material
in a continuous mixing line or batch style mixer to overcome the
resistance to initial wetting of materials, such as peat moss.
SOAX Concentrated Wetting Agent powder is used in potting mixes to overcome the resistance to initial wetting of materials, such as peat moss, and will maintain uniform distribution of applied water and nutrients over many months.
