"The growth rate and yield of Click & Grow plants are 30 percent faster than those of soil-grown plants, under the same conditions. The main difference is extra oxygen in the smart soil that helps to stimulate root growth. Plants with ample oxygen in the root system absorb nutrients faster. The nutrients are sent directly to the root system and the plant does not have to search in the soil for the nutrients that it requires. Our plants require very little energy to find and break down food and use this saved energy to grow faster and produce more fruit."
