After a long winter, it is finally time to sow. Whether you are preparing to sow seeds for your vegetable garden, aromatic plants or flower and fruit plants, we have prepared a list of products that will certainly facilitate the germination of your seeds and the development of small seedlings before they are planted. Optimal products suitable for any time of year and for any type of germination.
Cellmax Rootbooster increases resistance and reduces the risk of disease. During repotting (transplanting) and pruning, the plant's resistance is significantly reduced. During these phases, Cellmax Rootbooster maintains resistance levels and protects the plant so that growth can continue smoothly. Cellmax Rootbooster is rich in organic trace elements, vitamins and has a vitalising effect on plants. Use Cellmax Rootbooster on young plants, particularly when repotting. This allows the roots to continue to develop properly and the plant to take root. With Cellmax Rootbooster, plants remain healthy and strong. Cellmax Rootbooster can be used with other fertilisers. Also excellent used as a foliar spray. It is suitable for fast-growing fruit and vegetables as well as for growing in all hydroponic growing systems such as Deep Waterculture, NFT and aquaponics, as well as soil and coco.
Made entirely from plant-based ingredients and designed specifically for organic gardening, Root-Juice combines two incredible natural substances: humic acid and high-quality algae. Specially formulated to promote strong root development and encourage the biological life cycle around the plant's root system. Right from the start, Root-Juice supports the initial stages of root growth as well as the development of plants already firmly in the soil. This allows the plant to absorb nutrients more quickly, resulting in strong, healthy crops and a bountiful harvest for all growers.
VitaLink RootStim contains Ascophyllumnodosum (algae) extract, a high-quality extract containing natural stimulants and hormones. It is harvested from the algae during the optimal time of year to take advantage of its best nutritional properties. It includes carefully selected oligosaccharides to support the creation of strong roots. RootStim stimulates roots to grow stronger, longer and increases the formation of root hairs. Better roots mean better uptake of nutrients and water, resulting in more vigorous growth and greater resistance to environmental stress. VitaLink RootStim is designed for use especially in the early stages of plant life when it encourages rapid root growth and new root formation, relieves transplant stress and provides plants with the best possible conditions for further development.
Unleash the power of your soil with Mykos, the natural root promoter! Mykos from Extreme Gardening consists of pure mycorrhizae that provide a biological connection between the roots and the nutrients in the soil. Mycorrhizae have been shown to increase the availability of nutrients and moisture needed for plant growth, while improving soil structure.
The roots of your plants are like a buried treasure when you discover how easy it is to maximise their function and achieve optimum yields. Vodoo Juice takes care of the roots by utilising their ability to form symbiotic relationships with beneficial fungi and bacteria. These relationships help the root system absorb nutrients. The beneficial microbes break down old root material and provide nutrients. Each quarter litre contains 200 million bacteria, all of which benefit the root system. In addition, the microbes provide aeration so that oxygen can penetrate more deeply into the roots. They also capture nitrogen and help make phosphorus, an essential and important nutrient for your plants, more available. In tests, plants treated with Voodo Juice developed 90% more roots than the control group. Voodoo Juice can be used throughout the growth and flowering cycle and in all types of substrate.
Root Riot germination cubes are made of organic and biodegradable material. Their very spongy structure maintains the perfect ratio of air and nutrient solution for rapid root development. It provides the seed with a perfect home for germination while maintaining moisture and protecting it from external influences. Suitable for both cuttings and seeds, Root Riot exceeds the quality of standard rockwool cubes and guarantees better results.
Eazy Plug is an innovative propagation and growth medium that is truly unique. It comes with pre-determined EC and pH levels and is self-adjusting to exactly the right air-water ratio. Thanks to its strongly bonded organic components, no pots are required: with its superb water absorption and even moisture distribution, it can be supplied dried, providing a light, clean growing medium with an unlimited shelf life. The Eazy Plug system offers a sustainable growing solution.
Leaf-Coat is a ready-to-use product that strengthens and protects plants against unwanted foliar insects and fungi. It is essential during germination to protect small seedlings or cuttings that are particularly vulnerable to fungi and external agents. Made of natural latex, it was originally designed to prevent excessive evaporation. It creates a permeable, self-degrading barrier on the leaf while allowing air and light to filter through. If the environment is too hot-humid (temperature above 28 °C), Leaf-Coat helps the plant to retain the necessary water during evaporation. At the same time, the natural latex layer formed on the leaves helps the plant to breathe and prevents it from oozing. And if the thermometer drops, as it does in winter, Leaf-Coat protects against the cold and helps to keep the leaf temperature constant. Leaf Coat is a green and environmentally friendly alternative to pesticides and is really the ideal and safest choice.
The DP90 propagator makes it possible to create a complete propagation laboratory suitable for growing cuttings, cultivating and maintaining mother plants and germinating from seed. Secret Jardin has created a perfect environment for these purposes, where lights, air extractors and odour filters can be set up, as well as automation and control units and related wiring. Super recommended for germinating lots of seeds in a controlled environment, before planting them in the grow space.
If you want to make a small seedbed inexpensively and practically, we recommend the ventilated rigid plastic Mini Greenhouse, which is essential for seed germination to keep both temperature and humidity constant. Economical, reusable, and a must-have for any good gardener.
In some climatic conditions, it will be necessary to bud your precious seeds in a heated environment: the Stewart Mini Seedbed incorporates a heating unit within the propagation system and is designed to successfully germinate all types of seeds and keep cuttings and clones healthy in their first phase of life. The rigid mini greenhouse is equipped with two sliding air inlets to gradually accustom cuttings or seedlings to the contribution of air, and a heating element, placed under the carbon mat. It is recommended to use the heating element at night or during the coldest hours of the day.
An economical and compact solution from Secret Jardin, the 2x55W Neon Kit is designed to light small spaces with low extraction. It can be placed very close to the plants producing a low temperature light. The light produced is perfect for germination and growth of cuttings or clones, giving you excellent energy savings compared to MH lights for vegetative growth. The Secret Jardin TNeon 2x55W kit is a stand-alone system designed for fluorescent lamps, equipped with a neon holder and two 57cm 55W tubes, 6500K. The high efficiency of the electornic ballast makes it easy to connect several neon holders together, up to a maximum of 5 units.
The digital thermo-hygrometer with external probe measures temperature and humidity in percentages. It is a very useful and essential tool to keep these important values under control during germination. The LCD display is simple and intuitive, allowing you to read at a glance: time/date, temperature, relative humidity. It is also possible to store and set maximum/minimum temperature values with a programmable alarm function for each day.
