KRONEN® TERRA PRETA BIO Soil for tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, zucchinis and other vegetables and herbs is a ready-to-use, small-fraction substrate for planting and transplanting vegetables and herbs in containers on balconies and patios, and in gardens. It is also suitable for other solanaceous vegetables such as eggplant (aubergine), ground cherries, pepino, and cucurbitaceous vegetables such as squash, pattypan squash, giant pumpkin, butternut squash, kiwano, melon cucumber, melon and watermelon (kawon). KRONEN® TERRA PRETA BIO Soil for tomatoes is a fine-structured substrate that promotes the establishment and development of the root ball, and takes in and gives off water well. It contains clay. It is enriched with a slow-release organic fertiliser. It meets the criteria for environmentally-friendly substrates.
Available in 15L bags.
KRONEN® substrates are different and varied but their composition always meets the needs of the root ball and the nutritional needs of a particular group of plants. The basic components of the peat-free substrates of the KRONEN® TERRA PRETA line are ECOFIBREX® wood fibres, the coconut fraction, composted coniferous tree bark and other ingredients such as clay, fertilisers, humidifier, vegetable carbon, all in various proportions and fractions.
These components are structural elements that are both responsible for aeration, hydration and drainage, and serve as storage for the nutrients available to the root ball.
KRONEN® TERRA PRETA BIO Soil for tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, zucchinis and other vegetables and herbs is designed for the planting and transplanting of many species of green and flowering plants, vegetables, herbs, perennials and conifers in homes on balconies and patios, and in gardens (except for acid-loving plants).
“TERRA PRETA do Indio” means “black land of the Indians” in Portuguese. It is a black, highly fertile soil from the Amazon river basin, which was formed thousands of years ago on infertile soils due to human activity.
