The HCFM-XP-Gen3 Hydraulic Conductance Flow Meter, is designed to perform quantitative root and stem analysis without having to dig up roots or drag limbs back to the lab. In most cases, the analysis of a sample root or shoot is completed in as little as 10 minutes. You can quickly measure the major components of the hydraulic conductance in the soil-plant atmosphere continuum. One can measure the values of the individual hydraulic resistances, then compute the pattern of water flow and water potentials in the resistance network.
