“A balanced mix that delivers results.”
“We propagated around 30,000 raspberry canes and over 1 million tray-plant strawberries using this propagation mix. It’s well-buffered, consistent, not too fibrous and has a good open structure. Excellent for the plants — and it runs smoothly through our potting machines. A reliable, well-balanced substrate.”
— Managing Director, Castleton Farm, UK
