Premium Plant Substrates for Balcony, Potted, and House Plants (customized)
Give your plants exactly the soil they need! My custom-blended substrate is individually tailored to the needs of your plants – freshly and lovingly mixed by hand. Ideal for anyone who values healthy plant roots and ecological gardening.
Whether it's vegetable plants, flowers, potted plants, houseplants, cacti, or other cherished plants – I create the optimal mixture for every plant.
My ingredients for vigorous growth (usage as needed):
- Rich Compost: Provides natural, valuable nutrients and promotes active soil life.
- Subsoil: Serves as a mineral base, provides the necessary weight and stability for the soil mixture, and sustainably stores moisture.
- Peat or Coconut Substrate: Depending on your preference, I mix traditionally with peat or sustainably and peat-free with coconut substrate.
- Fine Sand: Ensures optimal drainage in the pot.
- Perlite and Mineral Components: Provide a loose structure, aerate roots, and prevent waterlogging.
- Extra for Cacti and Succulents: Here, depending on the plant's needs, I also use a high-quality mineral mixture of lava, pumice, zeolite, and vermiculite. This combination ensures maximum air permeability, prevents root rot, and perfectly balances nutrient and water levels.
- Special Mix for Carnivores: For carnivorous plants, I mix a nutrient-poor, acidic substrate of high-quality white peat, quartz sands, and perlite – precisely tailored to the sensitive roots of Venus flytraps, sundews, and co. To the article...
Your advantages at a glance:
- Customized Mix: The composition is individually adapted by me to your plants' needs. For this, I only need the plant species when ordering. (Please note: The pure sale of loose orchid substrate is excluded.)
- Sustainability: To protect the moors, I am happy to mix the substrate completely peat-free upon request.
- Natural Pest Control (optional): Especially for houseplants, treatment with nematodes is useful. Upon request, I can treat the soil with them in advance. This effectively and biologically protects your plants from fungus gnats for the initial period after repotting (surcharge: 0.50 Euro per mix). This option can be added directly to your mix. One application per mix is sufficient to biologically protect your plants.
- While the standard substrate is only available for pickup, the special substrates for cacti and carnivores can also be shipped!
