We are always excited to see real-life results from growers using our substrates – and this time, we’re pleased to share impressive photos from a client in Latina, Italy, cultivating 400 thousand cyclamen and poinsettia plants in our QTS substrate.
The substrate used in this case was specifically designed for drip irrigation and, among other components such as Baraclay, included EcoFibri® wood fiber – our sustainable material known for its excellent structural and water-management benefits, making it one of the key contributors to these results.
While EcoFibri® supports peat reduction and improves the environmental footprint, it also delivers important functional advantages that benefit growers:
✅ Improved drainage and water distribution
✅ More stable structure and reduced compaction
✅ Better surface conditions with less algae and mould
✅ Strong root development and uniform crop growth
These photos are another great example of how combining high-quality peat with EcoFibri® creates an excellent growing environment – even at large scale.
We thank our client in Latina for sharing these results and trusting QTS substrates for his high-quality plant cultivation.
If you're looking to enhance your production with high-performance, peat-reduced substrates tailored to your crop and irrigation system, our team will be happy to advise.
