Soft Fruit
The bulrush range of soft fruit substrates have been very successfully used by progressive soft fruit growers in the UK and Ireland for many years.
Strawberry mixes
The bulrush range of strawberry modules has been formulated using carefully selected screened sphagnum peat to give optimum AFP which allows the crop to grow successfully over winter, if required.
A low level of base fertiliser is added to facilitate initial rooting.
Sizes of bags range from 0.5m to 1m long.
Bulrush can cut both planting and irrigation holes to the pattern required by specific growers.
For those growers who require peat-reduced/peat-free production, coir/coco peat and our Forest Gold Plus wood fibre is available in any of the module sizes.
