Impatiens (Flo 3.2) -  4" Pot Production

ZeoponiX material produce superior plants

     Greenhoouse bedding plant grow out of the Impatiens (I. walleriana) hybrid , Super Elfin Series Rose was  conducted in 4 inch (10cm) diameter pots to compare the effects of various ZeoponiX medium formulations, supplemental soluble fertilizer rates and ZeoponiX amendment rates.
     Studies were replicated complete randomized block experiments involving nine (9) treatments:   four (4) different proprietary zeoponic formulations (NPK and minor nutrients) and controls.

ZeoponiX formulations were incorporated at 30% by volume with a peat:perlite  blend.   Soluble fertilizer was fed at 50%(0.5x), full (1x) and 150%(1.5x) weekly with 20-10-20.; 200 ppm being full (1x) fertility.
     The two photos illustrate the significant improvement in plant performance for one ZeoponiX medium (labeled Z3com) versus one of the controls (B).  Both treatments received the same supplemental soluble fertilizer with routine fertigation.  The ZeoponiX treatment had higher bloom count and better color than the control.  The photos were taken at 15 weeks after transplanting into the 4 inch (10cm) pots.
