Key Benefits

Providing plants with the right nutrients at the right time is essential for healthy growth and strong root development. Sustane 16-4-8 Root Feeder Paks offer a convenient, long-lasting solution that delivers controlled-release nutrition directly to the root zone. Designed for both professional growers and home gardeners, these feeder paks simplify fertilization while promoting sustainable and vigorous plant growth.

1. Long-Lasting, Controlled-Release Nutrition

Each feeder pak is designed to gradually release nutrients over an 8-month period, eliminating the need for frequent fertilization. At a consistent soil temperature of 70ºF, the slow-release process ensures that plants receive a continuous supply of essential nutrients, reducing the risk of overfeeding or nutrient leaching.

This feature makes Sustane 16-4-8 Root Zone Feeder Paks ideal for nurseries, landscape installations, and container-grown plants, where long-term nutrition is required for healthy root development.

2. Convenient and Easy-to-Use Application

The single-dose design of Sustane Root Zone Feeder Paks simplifies fertilizer application for both professionals and home gardeners. Simply place the biodegradable packet in the soil near the root zone, and it will naturally break down over time, releasing nutrients directly to the plant roots.

No need for measuring or mixing—just plant and grow! This time-saving solution is perfect for large-scale planting projects, reducing labor costs and ensuring uniform feeding.

3. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Fertilization

Sustane is dedicated to environmental sustainability, and the Root Zone Feeder Paks reflect that mission by incorporating:

• A biodegradable paper filter pack, eliminating plastic waste.
• Organic-based nutrients, improving soil structure and microbial activity.
• Low environmental impact, as nutrients are released efficiently with minimal runoff or leaching.

For growers looking to reduce their carbon footprint while maintaining excellent plant health, Sustane 16-4-8 Feeder Paks offer a practical and sustainable fertilization method.

4. Balanced 16-4-8 NPK Ratio for Root & Foliage Development

The 16-4-8 nutrient composition is specially formulated to support strong root establishment and vibrant foliage growth:

• 16% Nitrogen (N) – Promotes lush, green foliage and overall plant vigor.
• 4% Phosphorus (P) – Supports root development and energy transfer.
• 8% Potassium (K) – Improves drought tolerance, disease resistance, and plant strength.

This balanced NPK ratio makes Sustane Root Feeder Paks effective for a wide range of plants, from ornamentals and perennials to trees and shrubs.
