The Permanent Airspace allowsthe plant roots to safely enter the water in the reservoir. The plantroots pull the water upward thru thePermanentAirspace into the soil above drawing nutrients with it. “A pint ofwater at the root is worth a GALLON on the soil above,” states Stephen Martin,a garden writer in the UK.The UrBin Grower™ takes the guesswork out of watering. The exposedwater reservoir, only found in the Urbin Grower™, is always visible. You can see exactly how much or how littlewater your particular crops desire. This is a healthy, sustainable way to wateryour plants. As the water is drawn upward, it delivers essential nutrients toyour plants rather than those nutrients being washed away when you water fromabove.According to Oregon State University, “Circling roots arecommon problems in growing containers. Plants have difficulty gettingnutrients, shortening plant’s life span.”Roots that arecircling inside a growing container are more susceptible to the negativeeffects of excess heat, drought and disease.When plant rootsin the UrBin Grower™ are exposed to thePermanent Airspace,“Circlingroots are ‘burned’ off or pruned by the air, causing the plant to constantlyproduce new and highly branched roots,” according to Washington StateUniversity.This stimulates further growth of much wanted secondary rootsthat branch out within the growing medium.The UrBin Grower™ Basic isconstructed of UV protected food-grade plastic and holds a utility patentmaking it the only growing container of its type sold today.
