Aerial pruning and formation of peony roots

 

Friends, in order to further provide the opportunity for young peonies to form perfectly, we decided to use special Air-Pot containers.

The main purpose of Air-Pot containers is to improve air circulation and drainage.

Thanks to the side openings in the containers, the roots are in contact with air and light. Thus, we achieve the effect of air pruning, due to which the deformation of the roots is practically excluded.

The lateral root system does not succumb to undue stress, and peony growth is faster and more vigorous than in a standard container.

In addition, Air-Pot containers retain moisture better and heat up in the sun almost half as much as traditional containers.

All this will positively affect the health of peonies in the future.

Even earlier, we planted some varieties of peonies in Air-Pot, and in order to consolidate the result, we conducted experiments with a very large number of substrate compositions and settled on exactly what we later began to use in our Air Pot containers.

A compact and well-drained substrate really improves and facilitates the process of rooting tree peonies in Air Pot containers, as an environment similar to that of an open field is reproduced inside the container.

Our substrate provides significant moisture retention and gives the soil structural stability, enhancing the positive impact of water-air contact.

It is the combination of using professional Air-Pot containers and the right substrate that allows you to place the main emphasis on the correct formation of plant roots.
