All advantages of our ADVANCED substrates for raspberry and blackberry:
- High porosity and structural stability: for good root development of crops for one or more seasons
- Balanced ratio between air and water capacities: adapted to growing conditions
- Good water retention capacity for even moisture in the root zone: dry substrates limit the quantity harvested and the quality of the fruit
- Significantly reduces water consumption
- Limits the environmental impact of cultivation
- Homogeneous raw materials, free from plant pathogens
- Lightweight, natural materials allow plants to root easily in the growing environment
