It is possible to mix additives into the substrates. It depends on the specific needs of the grower which additives is used. We have to make sure the additive is of value for the plant that grows in the substrate. We usually add a basic mixture of fertiliser (PG-mix) to the substrate. We can use Dolokal to control and tune the pH-level of a mixture. On request we can add CRF (Controlled Release Fertiliser), biological fertilisers or, for example, mycorrhizas.
Soft Fruits
Our substrates used for soft fruit production are a result of many years of experiences, trials and feedback from researchers, advisers and growers. We can supply the most suitable growing media for each soft fruit cultivation system. BVB Substrates is the specialist in substrates for the soft fruit sector.

Growing soft fruits with tailored substrates
We can always provide our growers with advice and help them decide what would be the best mixture for their specific growing methods and cultivation style. We offer substrates for several different types of soft fruits, like blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries.
Since we produce substrates to order, we are able to quickly attend to the changing market and supply growers with the best tailor-made mixtures.
We can mix in additives that can help reach the desired physical properties. Some of these are perlite, bark and coir. Our Sales Advisors can help you find out what additives your cultivation would benefit from.
