What it is used for

  • For sowing and propagation in plug trays, seed trays and small pots.

Anything here can be mixed to your own recipe: a different fertiliser, more perlite, clay, a different pH or pack size.

Description

Seeding and propagation substrate made of white Sphagnum peat moss. It is limed with calcitic and dolomitic limestone, which also supply calcium and magnesium. It carries a starter charge of NPK 14-16-18 fertiliser with trace elements. 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.
