PEAT SUBSTRATE SULIFLOR SF 1 250l

SULIFLOR STANDARD

Peat is major component for production of substrates because of its excellent properties. It has high porosity, high water holding capacity, low pH, low nutrient content. Addition of limestone and fertilizers turns peat into high value growing media. Screening peat into various fractions helps to produce substrates with a wide range of physical properties. Many horticultural or landscaping companies prefer dark peat because it‘s:

Higher water capacity – retains water for a longer period

Loosing less water through evaporation and drainage

Advantage  in hot climate or summer

Better availability of water/wilting point

Rich in humic acid which stimulates root growth

Better buffering – for both water and nutrients/increased crop security

Compact growth of plants

Better shelf life

Higher content of organic matter
