In a first for China, Lijiang Qize Agricultural Development Company used 60,000 Finesse Growbags to raise its beautiful long-stem roses.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur Kimberley roses produced an average of 10 stems per plant after six months,\u201d says Mr. Shi Hongzheng of Lijiang Qize, one of China\u2019s leading growers of roses and calla lilies.<\/p>\n
Just open the precut holes and insert your irrigation drippers to prepare the Growbags, see image below.<\/p>\n Lijiang Qize initially contacted Jiffy because they were looking for a renewable substrate to grow their cut flower crops. Jiffy Growbags are environmentally friendly in multiple ways:<\/p>\n \u201cWe reuse 100% of our water and fertilizer,\u201d says Mr. Shi. Based out of Yunnan Province, Lijiang Qize already runs a 50,000 m2 state-of-the-art greenhouse, and it\u2019s currently building one of China\u2019s largest greenhouses to expand its cut flower<\/a> operation.<\/p>\n An important advantage for an operation of this size is that Jiffy Growbags<\/a> are shipped in a dried and compressed form, making them easy to transport and store.<\/p>\n Lijiang Qize found the Finesse Growbags<\/a> saved labor because they were so easy to prepare. There\u2019s no need to wash or treat the coir before use \u2013 just open the precut holes and insert the irrigation drippers. The result is a very spongy substrate, indicating excellent air-filled porosity.<\/p>\n \u201cIt normally takes five to seven days for the growbags to expand to full capacity,\u201d Mr. Shi notes. \u201cBut if you\u2019re in a hurry, adding more water will help speed things up!\u201d<\/p>\n Lijiang Qize uses a gutter system in their greenhouses and the growbags enabled very efficient placing of the roses. With eight plants per growbag, each one received better ventilation and more light than with their previous solution.<\/p>\n As a result, the roses were ready to harvest at six months, with very few losses. In fact, Lijiang Qize had a bumper crop on their hands: Thanks to Jiffy Finesse Growbags<\/a>, the plants produced an average of 10 stems each.<\/p>\n \u201cLooking at our other crops, the sprouting ratio is also quite high, so the Jiffy Growbag is very helpful for increasing our yield.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Lijiang Qize are leaders in China’s cut flower sector.
