Natural peat for soil mixes, soil improvement
For soil improvement in soil mixes for plants preferring acid soils
Application:
It can be used in gardens, floriculture and vegetable production in growing media mixtures or to improve the structure of soils. Lithuanian Novobalt Peat is suitable for improving the structure of heavy, compacted or, on the contrary, excessively porous, sandy soils and for acidifying soils. Many plants can only grow properly in acidic soils with a low pH value. This includes some pines and other conifers, rhododendrons (rhododendrons are closely related to azaleas), erica, magnolias, camellias, blueberries, etc.
Mixing ratio:
For germinating ornamental plant seeds in a ratio of 70% fibrous peat to 30% horticultural perlite. For germination of pine seeds, 80% fibrous peat and 20% sand. Can be used in gardens, floriculture and vegetable production to improve the structure of the growing medium. When planting potted plants, mix 10-50% Novobalt into the medium.
Benefits:
Provides long lasting good structure and water management. Odourless, pest-free, loosens soil. Excellent for use with plants that prefer acidic soils, e.g. blueberries, alpine ericas, rhododendrons, azaleas, hydrangeas.
pH value:
3,5-4,5
Dosage:
250 litres, which indicates the volume after peat loosening, not the packaging volume.
