Hi,

I am selling European-brand "JIFFY” substrate.
It is a soil potting media with fertiliser.

This post is for;
• Owners of houseplants, terrace plants, bedding and garden plants.
• Small-scale farmers (strawberries/mushrooms/herbs especially).
• Horticulture farmers.
• Plantation-scale managers who need tray/seedling substrate.
• Buyers/sellers of potting media or soil compost.

In Cambodia, most potting soil comes from farm lands that have already been growing plants...they often contain nematodes (parasitic soil micro-organisms) that will attack the root systems of the seedlings or houseplants you are trying to grow, resulting in stunting or death.

The benefits of this JIFFY substrate potting soil are;

• Guaranteed to be free of disease and contamination and free of substances that are harmful to plants.
• Free of nematodes, harmful to plants.
• Weed-controlled (the potting soil contains no seeds that will later grow into weeds)
• Optimum levels of nutrition, especially Nitrogen, needed for short term organic crops.
• Suitable properties and structure that allows roots to develop easily (a well-developed root system actively takes up nutrients and water, supporting healthy plant growth).

This product contains:

- Peat moss (sphagnum),
- White peat substrate,
- Clay soil,
- NPK 17-10-14
It contains 67% organic matter.

There is enough NPK fertiliser in this potting soil to sustain plants for between 3-6 weeks (depending on pot size). After that time, more fertiliser will need to be added.

Prices
• 1 x 20kg bag - potting volume of 70litres = $15.95

Or

• 1 x 50kg bag (compressed packaging) - potting volume of 225litres = $26.95

Discounts for bulk purchases over 50bags.
Delivery fee not included.
