Now also 100% peat-free Gramoflor potting soil for outdoor and indoor use

After the successful introduction of peat-free tomato and vegetable soil two years ago, the range of Gramoflor hobby soils is now also being expanded to include a very versatile peat-free potting soil. It is a real quality soil with conventional fertilization.

Instead of peat, the tried and tested peat substitutes wood fibre LIGNOFIBRE,® coconut and quality compost are used. The peat-free Gramoflor potting soil is mineral-fertilised, well structured and very versatile. It is the ideal breeding ground for spring flowering plants, bedding and balcony plants as well as for perennials and small shrubs. This soil can therefore be used for almost all plants outdoors in the garden, on the terrace or balcony as well as indoors - a real all-rounder. The depot fertiliser it contains ensures a long-term supply of the plants with the relevant nutrients. However, re-fertilisation and watering behaviour must always be adapted for peat-free soils and require more attention overall.

Another highlight for the 2025 season is the newly developed "BIO Presstopf" (art. 35174) growing and propagation substrate. With a peat substitute content of 30%, the finely structured substrate is particularly suitable for sowing and propagating vegetables. It is especially recommended for growing in press pots and contains black peat, LIGNOFIBRE® and substrate compost as well as an organic liquid fertiliser that ensures rapid availability of nitrogen after just a few days.

All of the positive properties of Coco Chips have been incorporated into the development of the new berry substrate at Gramoflor. The new "Topf-Blueberry" (art. 35172) is a universally applicable, highly peat-reduced container substrate for blueberries. It has an increased substrate moisture content and the pH value is adjusted to the level below 5 required for blueberries. The berry substrate contains 65% peat substitute raw materials, including Coco Chips, the quality wood fibre LIGNOFIBRE® and perlite. The combination of these alternative raw materials, peat, mineral fertiliser and gramoMICRO-DEPOT ensures optimum conditions for blueberry cultivation.
