How to use the jute mat
The jute mat proves to be an excellent solution for germinating sprouts, seeds and microgreens. Due to its flexibility and the fact that it can be easily cut to any size, it can be adapted to trays or mini-greens, providing an ideal environment for plant growth.
To begin, simply place the seeds or sprouting seeds on the surface of the mat, making sure they are well distributed. Subsequently, you can moisten the mat with water and keep it constantly moist during the germination process. The soft, root-contact jute mat prevents any damage to the plants, allowing them to grow healthy and vigorous.
During the growth period, the jute mat absorbs excess water, helping to keep the root environment adequately hydrated. With this practical and versatile solution, high quality sprouts, seeds and microgreens can be obtained easily and efficiently.
