Fibagro Advance is a perfect base for peat free growing media as well as complementing peat for peat reduced plant production. Manufactured from FSC certified raw materials, Fibagro Advance is created from wood chips which are thermo-mechanically processed. During this process the wood chips are put through extremely high temperatures allowing unwanted substances to escape as gas, ensuring that Fibagro Advance is free of any kind of chemical or physical additive and is sterile.

The latest generation surfactant which combines a wetting agent with a penetrating agent, ensuring the water tracts to all areas of sustainable growing media. H2Gro also contains a re-wetting agent, promoting excellent initial and long term wetting of growing media. It performs equally well through wetting and drying cycles.

The UK and Ireland ornamental horticulture industry now has a groundbreaking solution at its disposal to help combat Black Vine Weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) – Lalguard M52 GR (Lalguard). Black Vine weevil is a prevalent pest in ornamental horticulture and is a persistent problem within the UK and Ireland, if not managed correctly it can lead to extensive losses. Black vine weevil larvae damage roots, causing stunted growth, wilting, and plant loss. Meanwhile, adults chew notches in leaves, causing unsightly damage and poor plant health. Lalguard is an advanced, eco-conscious solution to help control this devastating pest. Derived from a specific soil-borne insect-pathogenic fungus, Lalguard acts primarily against Black Vine Weevil larvae. Lalguard can easily be incorporated into growing media and is well suited as a biopesticide as it does not need to be ingested to be effective. For UK and Ireland growers, Lalguard is the choice for effective and sustainable vine weevil management, especially in conjunction with a bespoke ICL plant protection plan. By integrating Lalguard into your strategy, you not only reduce the Black Vine Weevil’s impact but also lead the way in sustainable horticulture. Lalguard: Where plant protection meets environmental stewardship.

Osmocote Bloom provides optimum plant quality through maximum nutrition during the entire crop cycle, plus the selling and early consumer stages. Osmocote Bloom provides plants with all food they need every step of the way from potting to the first consumer phase. Its 100% coated NPK analysis and traces are ideal for bedding plants with a two-to-three-month crop cycle. It’s especially effective for condensed growth in many annuals including petunias and geraniums. 

Osmocote Exact High K is a 3rd generation controlled release fertiliser and has been designed to support compact plant growth where the irrigation water has high nitrogen levels. It’s the ideal solution for CNS crops and compact pot plants, perennials, and bedding plants. It also provides great results with species that need high potassium nutrition, including cyclamen, viola, and primula results in compact plants.  

Osmocote Exact Mini is perfect for use in small-substrate volumes such as plugs and trays. The fine granules (of between 0.85 and 2.0 mm) are smaller than Osmocote Exact Standard. This provides optimum nutrient distribution and uniform growth, in volumes as low as 20ml. The granules may be small – but each one is packed with every nutrient plants need.    Osmocote Exact Mini can be used to combine the rooting and repotting stages, rather than adding extra fertiliser via sprinklers.

Fourth-generation fertiliser Osmocote Exact Protect’s 100% double-coated granules postpone nutrient release during the winter months. That means EC or salt levels in the growing medium stay consistently low for up to the first three months. Longevity is between five and 14 months, while granule size is 2.0-4.5 mm. 

The first third-generation fertiliser, Osmocote Exact Standard, releases nutrition consistently throughout the growing season, in line with the plants’ requirements. This regular, continuous release makes it ideal for almost all growing situations. It’s especially well-suited to evergreens and deciduous shrubs, that can only be applied in one release pattern. It can also be used where plants’ nutrient demands are consistent throughout the growing cycle. 

Osmocote Exact Tablets offer convenience and very accurate rates of nutrients. Due to their cone-like shape, the tablets can be easily pushed into the growing media. As with Osmocote Exact, the longevity is instantly recognised by the colour of the granules in the tablets. Tablets are available in 5 gram and 7.5 gram formats.
