Sure To Grow
® products fulfill the highest standards available on the market today and benefit both our customers and the environment. Sure To Grow® products are designed to benefit growers and users by using a unique substrate and a technology designed for the 21st century. Sure To Grow® is lighter, cleaner, and much less bulky than any other medium currently on the market. You will find that with Sure To Grow®, less is truly more.

STG can be produced from fibers made from renewable resources that are in-soil degradable or that can be cleanly burned.

STG is a highly versatile product as a growth medium. STG products are available in unique pad and mat forms not currently available in Rockwool, Coir, or Oasis. They are also made in standard grow cubes, blocks, and slabs. In addition, Sure To Grow® can be used together with other media. Industry trials with our products have indicated several value-added properties: quicker and cleaner installation and removal of medium; decreased germination time; easier harvesting; and seamless use with current grow systems.

STG Grow Rolls

The STG Grow Mat is a unique grow system for growers who use grow tables, troughs or gutters. The first generation and current STG Mat was designed by commercial growers who use 26 foot long, four bay trough tables. All of these growers were using 100% perlite or peat perlite mixes. The immediate impact was on labor, as it took only minutes to roll out an STG Mat as opposed to pouring heavy, dusty, messy bags of Perlite or soil. Clean up saw similar positive efficiencies, as it only takes minutes to roll up an STG Mat, with no residual clean up needed outside of a quick table wash down. And because an STG Mat will wet instantaneously growers can seed and begin germinating immediately.

This unique method of replacing the media for each new planting also impacted growers who were troubled by root diseases like Pythium. As any grower will attest, once Pythium gets into the media, it is very difficult to get rid of. Because each new STG Mat is sterile and hygienic it does not allow for cross contamination and spreading of disease which in turns creates a much more hygienic and sterile environment in any type grower facility.

The STG Mat can be easily cut to fit any type gutter system. We can also custom cut sizes to fit any grow system with a reasonable contract requirement. This sytem was designed, trialed and approved by dozens of commercial gutter and trough growers around the United States

Designed as an alternative to:
Soilless mixes
Coir

Light weight, sterile, clean and hygienic
Great aeration and water retention
