Our substrates
Our Biopratic planters can be delivered with substrates comprising:
- A 50-litre bag of clay beads,
- A geotextile sheet.
- 4, 50-litre bags of Biopratic substrates
Developed by a specialist in the Rhône-Alpes regions, the composition of our substrates means that you only need to renew them by a third each year (although it is recommended to enrich them from the 2nd year, as is the case with a traditional planter).
