INFO ON
3. Sphagnum peat moss
is a natural organic
matter coming from
a peat bog.
This primary resource
is carefully harvested
with specialized
vacuum harvesters.
SPHAGNUM
PEAT MOSS
4. SPHAGNUM
PEAT MOSS
Peat moss comes
in various levels
of fibrosity and
decomposition.
Once carefully
graded, peat moss
ensures that the
qualities of each
grade is optimized
for a final product
satisfying high
quality requirements.
5. Mycorrhizae are
fungi which increase
flower, fruit and
vegetable yield
by entering into a
symbiosis with the
plant’s root system.
MYCORRHIZAE -
GHA297
TECHNOLOGY
6. They act as a natural
growth enhancer
by extending the
root system.
Plants can acquire
more of the available
nutrients and water
from the soil.
MYCORRHIZAE -
GHA297
TECHNOLOGY
7. Mycorrhizae also
improve resistance
to root diseases and
stresses. It also:
• improves fertilizer uptake
• reduces fertilizer costs
• optimizes results without
changing growers’
practices
• reduces maintenance costs
MYCORRHIZAE -
GHA297
TECHNOLOGY
8. BIOFUNGICIDE
Our BIOFUNGICIDE
operates to reduce
disease symptoms
through one or several
mechanisms, which
essentially gives plants a
competitive advantage
over pathogens.
9. Our BIOFUNGICIDE -
GHA180 technology
contains a naturally
strain of bacteria:
Bacillus pumilus.
It enhances plant
growth and fight
harmful organisms such
as Fusarium, Pythium
and Rhizoctonia.
BIOFUNGICIDE -
GHA180
TECHNOLOGY
10. BIOSTIMULANT
BIOSTIMULANT is a
strain of bacillus that
naturally enhances
growth and increases
germination rates.
It creates an optimized
environment that
promotes growth and
reduces the impact of
stresses on plants.
12. COIR
We have selected
a material based
on these following
3 properties to
create a high quality
professional
growth medium:
• Physical (particle size and type)
• Chemical (washed material
with low salinity level)
• Microbiological
(pathogen-free)
13. Chunk coir provides an
ideal balance between
air porosity and water
retention.
This type of coir is ideal
in drought conditions
thanks to its water
retention ability.

14. PROCESSED
PINE BARK Processed pine bark
consists of partially
composted aged pine
bark predominantly
derived from red pine
species.
15. PERLITE
Perlite is an
alumino-silicate ore
of volcanic origin.
Once screened in
various particles sizes,
it is a light weighted
aggregate that has a
high total porosity and
improves both drainage
and air porosity.
17. LIMESTONE Limestone is used
to adjust a growing
medium’s pH to an
optimum range.
It optimizes nutrient
uptake and is also
a source of calcium
and magnesium.
