Organic seed starting soil
Fafard's Seedling and Seedling Potting Soil is specially formulated to support the early stages of the vegetative cycle, where the precision of the growing medium is crucial. Its balance of sphagnum peat moss, coconut fiber, and natural amendments creates a stable environment that promotes consistent germination, even root development, and the rapid emergence of the first leaves.
Its fine, airy structure ensures optimal contact between the seed and the substrate, while maintaining a constant moisture level without saturation. This controlled water management limits the risk of water stress and supports root development in seedlings and cuttings, whose tissues remain sensitive to environmental variations.
- Sowing vegetables in pots, multi-cell trays or terrines
- Propagation of indoor and ornamental plants
- Tray microgreen production
- Transplanting young plants into pots before final repotting
Moisten evenly before use and avoid excessive compaction in order to preserve the porosity necessary for the development of rootlets.
Suitable for vegetable seedlings such as tomatoes, lettuce, and peppers, for cuttings of houseplants like pothos or coleus, and for seedlings grown for consumption. Adapted to young plants requiring a light, moderately nutrient-rich substrate during their establishment phase.
Balanced natural composition
Sphagnum peat moss, coconut fiber, humus, perlite, lime, gypsum and organic fertilizer for a light, stable and fertile structure.
Nutrients suitable for young plants
Guaranteed analysis of 0.05% nitrogen, 0.07% phosphorus and 0.1% potassium, promoting root initiation and the formation of the first leaves without nutrient excess.
Homogeneous wetting
Coconut fiber improves water absorption and distribution, limiting dry or saturated areas in containers.
Structural ventilation
Perlite helps to maintain constant porosity, which is essential for root respiration in the juvenile phase.
Suitable for organic farming
Formulation in accordance with organic farming practices, respecting the natural development of the plant from its earliest stages.
Ready to use
Ready for immediate use for sowing and indoor transplanting, simplifying early season operations.
