What it is used for

  • For potting and growing on in pots and containers.

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

Description

Potting substrate made of dark-brown Sphagnum peat moss with perlite. 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. Perlite keeps it open and drains surplus water. Peat moss is naturally free of plant diseases, weeds and impurities.

Made in Lithuania.

About the raw material

More decomposed, darker and denser peat, used where a mix needs weight and body.

Instruction for use

Mix well, aerate and water before using.

Store in a cool, dry place, away from heat sources and open flame.
