Gerberas

Gerbera is a crop that is grown on the same substrate for several years. In recent years, gerbera cultivation has completely switched from cultivation slabs to container cultivation. Cultivation in containers provides more flexibility, so that plants can be easily replaced. Gerbera cultivation is characterised by strong, vegetative initial growth; therefore growers expect substrates to facilitate quick rooting and fast early growth.

Precision Growing was never so precise.
