Better plants when growing roses in containers with DCM organic fertilisers
MINIGRAN® Technology is an innovative and unique granulation process for producing organic fertilisers in the form of mini-granules. Trials have shown that these unique mini-granules offer major advantages when used in potting soils and container cultivation. They improve rooting and thus lead to stronger plants.
The application of DCM ECOR® 5 MINIGRAN® Technology while growing garden roses in pots resulted in significantly better root development and denser plants. The goal, to cultivate roses 100% organically with a basic fertiliser mixed into the potting soil, was thus achieved.
