How does Rootivate encourage growth?

We’re proud to offer one of the only tree regrowth solutions on the market with a 90-95% success rate (close to 100% if we can ID a tree in decline in an early stage). At its most fundamental level, Rootivate works to “reboot” a tree’s hydration intake system. Traditional fertilizers or deep root feeding (DRF) solutions rely on a tree’s ability to drink; typically, homeowners will see a little boost in the health of their tree after fertilizing, but will notice that long-term benefits seem to be lacking. Rootivate takes it one step further by encouraging the growth of root hairs, the microscopic cellulose single cell extensions near the tip of the root responsible for most nutrient and water intake.

✚ Step 1: Consultation

The first step to healthier trees is to meet with a Rootivate technician. Our team will develop your Rootivate Growth Plan based on your input on your home’s history, changes in the environment, and through assessing visible symptoms of decline.

✚ Step 2: Treatment

Next, our team will begin the process of treating the trees on your lot with Rootivate. Your Rootivate Growth Plan will determine whether you’re on an annual or biannual treatment schedule. Our team will take data and progress photos to track your results over the next several years.

✚ Step 3: Ongoing care

Depending on your goals, your Rootivate team will follow up on a predetermined schedule to continue treating, monitoring, and assessing the continued progress of your trees. By continuing to invest year over year, you’ll reap more sustained profits than one-off treatment solutions.
