THE SYSTEM
03
SowGrow is designed for flood and drain watering with our Rocket Tank propagation system. We expect them to perform equally well under a good over-head sprinkler system.
The Rocket tank can hold up 144 SowGrow Pots.
The advanced and comprehensive version of our propagation system includes a thermostatically controlled heated bottom, a water reservoir that the tank sits on, and a UV grow light system.
All of these make it possible to propagate trees with perfect root systems all year round.
THE DESIGN
02
SowGrow is designed to perfect the root system. The mature tree reflects this level of perfection

SOIL
cusps guide roots to open air
SowGrow's twelve sided cusp design allows it to air prune juvenile roots during propagation. When the tree is planted out, the same air root-pruning cusps become root guidance cusps, guiding the roots into the soil, until the pot composts.
All materials used are organic and become part of the soil.
