The purpose of this study was to determine whether the application of NutriRoot Granular at the time of transplanting enhances sapling establishment and growth compared to NutriRoot Liquid and untreated controls.

A 30-day evaluation assessed the impact of NutriRoot on early plant growth across multiple tree species. Plants were grown in a compost, peat moss, and vermiculite medium, and growth was measured by height increase compared to untreated controls.

Treated plants showed significantly improved growth compared to untreated controls

• Black Cherry: Approximately 80% greater growth with both NutriRoot? Granular and Liquid compared to untreated plants.
• Blue Spruce: Strong response, with over 60% growth increase using the Liquid form and 40% with the Granular form.
• Bur Oak: Modest growth improvement with both treatments, while untreated plants showed no new growth.

Applying NutriRoot Granular at the time of transplanting enhances sapling establishment and growth. Performance was comparable to NutriRoot Liquid, with both treatments significantly increasing new shoot growth over untreated plants.

These results support the use of NutriRoot Granular as an effective option for improving transplant success and early plant development.
