            The Growcoon for soft fruits:
            \nA kick start for your young plants<\/h2>\n

            [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]The Growcoon\u2019s clever conical shape creates an air buffer between the root ball and the wall of the tray cell. This gives the plant roots more air and plenty of room to grow. And they do not stick to the tray, so the roots are not damaged when transplanted. There is nothing to hinder root development.  The result: a homogeneous crop and strong soft fruit young plants that are more resistant to harmful external influences.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1628691617282{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-right: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=””]\"\"[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1720617601140{padding-bottom: 70px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=””]\"\"[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

            The Growcoon is approved for organic cultivation<\/strong><\/h2>\n

            [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Growcoon can be used in organic cultivation already in several countries. As it consists of fully biodegradable polymers, nothing is left over after its use (apart from water and CO2<\/sub>). In other words: Zero waste. Growcoon holds the French, Italian, Swiss and German FiBL listing and has also been on the Dutch SKAL input list for years. Moreover, our Growcoon carries the \u2018OK Soil\u2019 and \u2018OK Compost\u2019 biodegradability certificates. So, you can be sure that you can use Growcoon in organic cultivation with confidence.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Find the perfect substrate for organic cultivation here” css=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fklasmann-deilmann.com%2Fen%2Fproducts-solutions%2Fproline-substrates%2F|title:ProLine%20Substrates”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1720772067036{margin-top: 70px !important;padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 70px !important;background-color: #414345 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1628692250337{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

            The Growcoon efficiency:
            \nEasy to automate<\/h2>\n

            [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Are your labour costs also rising due to inflation? For many growers, labour is a concern. Now, but also in the coming years, this does not seem to be changing. How\u2019s that for you? Save on labour costs by investing in automation. This is the way to scale up smoothly and reduce your labour costs. <\/p>\n

            Growcoon makes automation possible: The automatic dispenser places Growcoons into the trays. Cuttings and seedlings grown in the Growcoon can be selected, re-gapped and transplanted by automatic machinery, speeding up your work flow.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Learn more” css=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.growcoon.com%2Fen%2Feasy-to-automate|target:_blank”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1628691617282{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-right: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=””]\"\"[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
