Rooted in quality from day one. 🌱
Meet Lok and Amal, two of our dedicated agronomists out in the field at Coolibah Herbs! Every great harvest starts beneath the surface, and keeping a close eye on root health is key to growing strong, nutrient-packed produce.
4 signs of healthy roots below :)
🤍 Bright, White Color: Healthy, active roots are typically clean and bright white, showing strong cellular structure and active nutrient uptake.
🌿 Abundant Fine Fine Feeders (Root Hairs): Lots of tiny feeder roots mean the plant is efficiently absorbing water and minerals from the surrounding soil.
💪 Firm, Flexible Texture: Healthy roots should feel firm and crisp, not soft, slimy, or overly brittle.
📐 Deep & Balanced Growth: A strong taproot and expansive lateral spread mean the plant is anchored well and exploring plenty of soil volume.
