Root Zone Health Optimization
At the heart of every healthy tree or shrub is a thriving root system. Root zone management is a vital part of plant health care, focusing on the key elements plants need to grow: proper hydration, air space, and balanced soil nutrients—all delivered at the right time and in the right amounts.
Proactive rootzone health care is evident in landscape health and resilience!
Pest Management
Proper identification of pests is critical to determining the correct actions to be taken for mitigation.
Once identified, we create an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program utilizing environmentally minded and acute application methods for managing destructive pests.
Deep Root Fertilization
Deep-Root Fertilization is a proven method of improving root health by hydraulically decompacting soil and injecting a customized mix of bio-stimulants and soil fertility amendments. This process enhances nutrient uptake, stimulates strong root development, and restores soil structure.
We offer tailored root zone treatment plans with 3 to 6 visits per growing season, depending on the needs of your landscape. These treatments help remediate compacted or depleted soils and support the long-term health of your trees, shrubs, and turf.
WHY USE DEEP ROOT SOIL INJECTION AND APPLY AMENDMENTS?
- To encourage strong anchor root growth
- Increase overall root biome health, thus tree/plant health
- Increase nutrient and water availability to roots
- Increase vigor and natural pest resistance
- Ensures adequate water availability
- To encourage young tree roots to grow deep, not at the surface.
- To enrich poor soil structure from construction compaction.
- Water conservation is increased as the water holding capacity of healthier soil is increased.
- Increased water availability to roots
- Robust microbiome nutrient cycling
