Professional substrate for repotting short-cycle annual plants in 10–12 cm pots.
Minipot combines Baltic blonde peat and brown peat at 0–20 mm for a medium structure calibrated to short cycles in small pots: low conductivity, fast rooting on annuals.

Features
Minipot was developed to address water retention in small pots. The 0–20 mm granulometry and the blonde/brown peat ratio are calibrated for less frequent irrigation cycles, typical of annual bedding plant production in greenhouses. The medium structure combines Baltic blonde peat 0–20 mm and brown peat 0–20 mm. A small fraction of wood fiber completes the mix for structural stability throughout the cycle.
PG Mix starter fertiliser supports the first growth phase. The wetting agent helps the first rehydration of the root zone after repotting. Minipot is developed for the productive cultivation of short-cycle annuals in nurseries.
Selected peat from the Baltic countries: consistently from the same fields, season after season, to ensure quality continuity from batch to batch.

Why choose it
- Medium-fine structure: stable water retention between irrigations in 10–12 cm pots.
- Brown peat 0–20 mm as main component: large surface area for rooting on annuals.
- Short-cycle stability: the substrate supports the full vegetative phase of the annual.
- pH 5.5–6.5 and EC 0.6–1 mS/cm: suited to the bedding annual cycle.
- Base fertilisation + root biostimulant: rooting in 7–10 days.
