EUCALYPTUS – BASE CASE
PROPAGATION
BEFORE
Introducing the Ellepot System
Using plastic containers
• No air pruning
• Roots intertwining, making strangulation zone
• 28-35% root deformation
• Standard average on diameter of the stalk
• Low number of secondary roots
• Standard average on survival of young plants
• Removal of young plants (from pots) causing
trauma to the root system
AFTER
Introducing the Ellepot System
Using Ellepot®
• Air pruning
• Free lateral rooting = No intertwining
• Only 2-3% root deformation = Uniform rooting
• 20% diameter increase on stalks of young plants
• More than 350% increase on number of secondary roots
• Higher gain on survival of young plants
• Young plants planted directly in soil without root trauma

25. 18-01-2019 25
1. Faster turn on the benches / faster
propagation cycle.
Easy grading.
2. Less time in the nursery – normally 120 days. With Ellepot only 75 days.
4. Easy transport as Ellepot is easy to
pack and protects the roots
COST & LOGISTICS SAVINGS
WITH THE ELLEPOT PROPAGATION SYSTEM
3. Water efficiency is better - 25%
less water consumption
5. Faster transplanting into field
• Ellepot is planted directly in the field
• Ellepot Paper is eco friendly and
discompose
• No plastic trays to take to field and
collect afterwards.

26. 18-01-2019 26
ROOT DEVELOPMENT
ELLEPOT VS. PLASTIC CONTAINERS
• Early development of secondary and fat
white primary roots are key for stable and
successful non-deformated rooting of
pines
• The Ellepot has a good and well-formed
structure with wider rooting because of
the air pruning. This means that the
young plant has a much higher chance of
survival in the field
• The regular tubes are known for making
root curling and forming a “root ball”. The
progress is slower than with air pruning,
and risk of mortality is higher

TEAK – BASE CASE
PROPAGATION
BEFORE
Introducing the Ellepot System
Using plastic tubes
• 4-8 cm stem height
• Vertical rooting in tubes
• Root deformities
AFTER
Introducing the Ellepot System
Using Ellepot®
• 17 cm stem height =Double height after 100 days
• Lateral and vertical rooting = Double root weight after 160 days
• Natural root architecture = No root damage

28. 28
PINE – BASE CASE
PROPAGATION
BEFORE
Introducing the Ellepot System
• No air circulation
• Remove from plastic for plant out
• Transplant shock
• Roots growing downwards
AFTER
Introducing the Ellepot System
• Air circulation Air pruning
• Easy plant out Saved labour
• No transplant shock Faster take off
• Fibrous roots No intertwining
