"For the last ten years, Butler Tree Farm has used “starter kits” from Total Quality Liners (TQL) to produce quality products. As a grower, I recommend TQL for the following reasons:

1. Air-Pot products have superior roots. The trees establish much quicker thus enhancing crop rotation which equals more profit.

2. Root manipulation means roots are established in a 360o degree radius. Air pruning has eliminated a one sided root ball. This keeps the starter tree vertical and is less likely to develop a crooked trunk.

3. The Air-Pot increases the number of root tips, which enhances the uptake of nutrients and water, resulting in faster plant growth.

4. Quality products are consistently found at TQL. Production agreements are reasonable, timely and dependable.

5. TQL personnel are available to discuss products and provide tours of production areas. Communication with the growers is excellent. Suggestions are taken and products can be “tweaked” to meet grower expectations.

6. Delivery is timely and available as needed.

Butler Tree Farm is looking forward to expanding our quality needs with Total Quality Liners."

"I buy from TQL for numerous reasons like: quality, service and horticultural knowledge. But one of the main reasons is the Air-Pot growing system they use. With TQL Air-Pot grown three gallons, you don’t have to worry about circling roots or manipulating the rootball before planting. Even more impressive is the increased growth rate I’ve seen on everything that came out of an Air-Pot! I’ve been planting TQL’s Air-Pot grown trees for the past 3 years and I have seen at least a 25-30% faster growth rate than any other container I’ve used, such as the accelerator, rootmaker, and of course, any slick wall container.

Here is just one of the many examples: Nineteen months after we planted TQL’s three gallon Air-Pot grown Bald Cypress starters, we were harvesting 4” to 5” caliper trees...Enough said!! That’s why TQL is my first choice for all of my liner needs!!!!"

"Twin Lakes Nursery has found many benefits using the Air-Pots that Total Quality Liners has provided with their product. Since receiving three-gallon trees in the Air-Pots, we have noticed a better root ball and a more vigorous plant. The success rate of keeping a healthy tree over a long period of time has also improved due to the Air-Pot. TQL has consistently sent a quality product along with excellent customer service."
