The application of DCM ECOR® 5 MINIGRAN® Technology while growing Japanese maple in pots resulted in significantly better root development and denser plants. The plants were also more uniform. The goal, to cultivate Japanese maple 100% organically with a basic fertiliser mixed into the potting soil, was thus achieved.
