Universal Peat-Free Potting Soil Father François Or Brun - 20L

Père François' universal breeding ground: peat-free innovation for a sustainable garden

The commitment to environmentally friendly gardening takes a new step forward with the universal peat free soil of Father François. Aware of the importance of preserving peatlands, non-renewable resources and carbon sinks essential to our planet, Or Brun experts have developed an alternative formulation of remarkable effectiveness. This 20-litre substrate offers a high-quality structure for all your plantings, while adopting a strong eco-responsible approach. Its bag, made of at least 51% recycled plastic, underlines this commitment to biodiversity and reducing the carbon footprint.

A rich, organic composition for complete nutrition

The performance of this potting soil is based on a complex mix of rigorously selected natural raw materials. By replacing peat with coco coir and wood fibre, this substrate ensures perfect soil aeration and excellent moisture management.

• Bark and vegetable compost : Provide structure and promote microbial life.

• Composted manure and seaweed : Provide a complete and natural nutrient reserve.

• Organic fertilizers : Ensure sustained and regular growth of your plants over the long term.

  This formulation can be used in organic farming, guaranteeing a healthy garden, without synthetic products.

Advanced root stimulation thanks to mycorrhizae

The major innovation of this soil lies in the integration of an agronomic additive (MA N° 1171275) composed of beneficial microorganisms. Enriched with mycorrhizae (Glomus intraradices) and Azospirillum, this potting soil actively stimulates root development. These fungi and bacteria create a symbiosis with the plant, increasing its ability to draw water and nutrients from the soil. The result is a faster recovery during planting and a better resistance of the plants to water or climatic stresses.

Planting tips and optimal dosage

The universal peat-free potting soil adapts to all your projects, from creating a vegetable garden to repotting your flowering plants.

• Planting in the ground : To give your shrubs or perennials the best chance, mix the potting soil in equal parts with the soil extracted from the planting hole. This makes it possible to lighten the heavy soil while providing the necessary nutrients.

• Planting in pots and containers : Choose a container that is about three times the volume of the root ball. Place the potting soil at the bottom, set up your plant, then fill in the empty spaces. Light compaction followed by copious watering will ensure perfect contact between the roots and the stimulated substrate.

A usage schedule for guaranteed results

Although this potting soil can be used throughout the year, the periods of February to June and September to November are particularly recommended to maximize the effect of root growth stimulators. Its high water retention capacity (600 mL/L) makes it a valuable ally during the summer months to keep your plants hydrated. By choosing this potting soil, you are giving your garden sustainable and vigorous growth while taking concrete action to protect natural wetlands.
