Semi-Hydro Mix - The Low-Maintenance Solution for Thriving Plants


Sybotanica’s SYBASoil-Series Semi-Hydro Mix is a versatile, soil-free growing medium designed for hydroponics, semi-hydroponics, and plant propagation. Thanks to its capillary action, it absorbs water and stores excess moisture at the bottom of the pot, providing a steady supply of hydration while maintaining excellent aeration.


Perfect for fussy plants, hydroponic setups, and easy propagation, this mix combines humidity retention with optimal airflow to support healthy root development and low-maintenance care.


Why Choose Semi-Hydro Mix?


Unlike regular soil, this inert, mineral-based substrate provides key advantages:



 
✔ Encourages rapid root growth - Ideal for plant propagation and hydroponics
 
✔ Self-watering system - Reduces the need for frequent watering
 
✔ Prevents overwatering and root rot - Stores excess moisture without waterlogging
 
✔ Increases humidity and airflow - Perfect for moisture-loving plants
 
✔ Quick nutrient absorption - Ensures efficient uptake through the capillary effect


💡 No nutrients included - Add liquid fertilizer to the water or use a slow-release fertilizer for optimal plant health.


How to Use Semi-Hydro Mix


 → 🌿 For Hydroponic and Semi-Hydroponic Growing

 
Use as a standalone substrate in hydroponic or semi-hydroponic systems.
 
Always use a pot without drainage holes to maintain the reservoir effect.
 
Flush the mix regularly to prevent mineral and nutrient buildup.


 → 🌱 For Propagation

 
Fill a container with water and the mix, then place the cutting inside.
 
The capillary action ensures the cutting stays hydrated while promoting root growth.


What Is Semi-Hydro Mix Made Of?


This 2-8mm hydro mixture consists of high-quality, mineral-based materials often referred to as vulkastrat or pon. It provides a stable structure, excellent moisture retention, and improved root aeration, making it ideal for semi-hydroponic cultivation.


Why Semi-Hydro Mix Works


Unlike traditional soil, this substrate creates a balanced environment where plants receive consistent hydration and oxygen without the risk of overwatering or suffocation. The capillary effect enables:



 
✔ Efficient water storage and release - No risk of drying out too quickly
 
✔ Even nutrient distribution - Roots absorb what they need, when they need it
 
✔ Simplified plant care - No need for constant watering or soil maintenance


💡 The key to success? Regularly flush the mix to prevent salt buildup and ensure proper nutrient absorption.


Perfect for Hydroponic Enthusiasts and Busy Plant Owners


This Semi-Hydro Mix is ideal for growers who want a low-maintenance, soil-free alternative that supports healthy roots, faster growth, and better hydration control.
