What it is used for
- A limed base for growers and substrate makers who add their own fertiliser.
Anything here can be mixed to your own recipe: a different fertiliser, more perlite, clay, a different pH or pack size.
Description
Base substrate made of white Sphagnum peat moss. It is limed with calcitic and dolomitic limestone, which also supply calcium and magnesium. No fertiliser is added, so the grower doses their own. A wetting agent helps it take up water and spread it evenly. Peat moss is naturally free of plant diseases, weeds and impurities.
Made in Latvia.
