PEAT SUBSTRATE FOR STRAWBERRIES AND OTHER BERRY BUSHES 40 L

Purpose: mix of light and dark peat supplemented with perlite, long-release organic fertilisers and rooting activator, for cultivation, transplanting and propagation of strawberry and wild strawberry plants and other berry bushes supplementing and improving the gardening soil for soil mulching. Organic fertiliser in the peat mixture provides nutrients to the plants for up to 3 months and the rooting activator helps strawberry plants or berry bush seedlings to establish and grow quicker and easier. Substrate additives increase plant vigour and fertility, with less need for additional fertilisation during the growing season. The volcanic material perlite traps moisture and increases air permeability in the peat mixture.
Recommendations for use: The peat substrate must be aerated and moistened before planting strawberry plants or berry bush seedlings. Transplanting strawberry plants or berry bush seedlings into a pot, field or raised bed: make a hole and fill it with peat mixture, plant the seedling or sapling and water thoroughly.
