Scottish deliveries.
Just received the following comments.
I am incensed that you classify Aberdeenshire as
"remote Scottish highland". Aberdeen is a major terminal for the oil
& gas industry, Peterhead is the largest white fish port in Europe and the
area as a whole has excellent communication to the south. The West Coast
residents have started a blacklist of companies that charge exorbitant rates
for delivery, the idea is spreading and the list growing. You, no doubt, will
blame the carriers but by using those carriers you are losing business. If I
can get 25kg of dog food delivered from Hertfordshire for £4.95 it ought to be
possible for other companies to charge similar rates.
I pointed out that if he ordered one bag of Fertile Fibre Compost he would only have to pay £1.20 extra.

Cuttings
Fertile Fibre works very well on a large range of cuttings used in deep trays or plugs. Cuttings root faster with well-formed root systems. 100% is possible with the use of soil warming cables and a good mist system. Mixing with Perlite/Vermiculite, or grit/sand for hardwoods gives equally good results.


Growing Herbs in Fertile Fibre
For those that don't know Fertile Fibre was developed on a herb nursery called the Cottage Herbery found here, http://www.thecottageherbery.co.uk/ in 1989. The Cottage Herbery went on to win several Gold medals at Chelsea Flower Show all grown organically and in Fertile Fibre.So if you are thinking of growing herbs this year, try Fertile Fibre.

Wheatgrass
Fertile Fibre coir and compost for Wheat-grass
Received a call today about wheat-grass and i thought it would be of help to add information to the blog.
You can use coir for wheat-grass, any bales or blocks will need hydrating and will take a minimum of 24 hrs to hydrate or you can buy coir that has already been hydrated and ready to use and with the correct moisture. You can use straight coir or if you want a more productive media some people use Fertile Fibre Organic Multipurpose or Vegro Multipurpose, both are Soil association approved and the Vegro is Vegan approved and of course both are 100 % peat free. The Fertile Fibre will give more vigorous growth and more crop, yields ie: crop will grow back quicker when cut.
The fertilizer will also produce a greener crop, but for some purest only straight coir will do.
We sell our media compost, coir to all the large wheat-grass producers so you can rest easy that it works and something new you could try, the new professionals choice that has been chemically changed to produce the perfect growing media.
With all growing it's what works best in your system and the ideal is to try many things in producing the perfect wheat-grass.

New stock of buffered Coir Coco bales has arrived
Yesterday we received a delivery of Coir Coco Cocopeat buffered bales .
Some Coir facts:
Coir, Coco and Cocopeat are all the same thing.
You normally have two different sizes of coir products,
1. Coir or Coco or Cocopeat Bale:
5 Kg in weight
30cm x 30cm x 20cm(approx)
Expands to 70 litres of final product
2. Coir or Coco or Cocopeat Briquette(Brick)
650grams in weight
20 cm x 10 cm x 5cm
Expands to 9 litres
3. 3 Types, Washed, Organic and buffered.
Washed is naturally washed and sun dried.
Organic is produced from coconut trees that have been farmed organically and then washed
Buffered is chemically changed to reduce the ions by washing the coir in calcium nitrate.
For all 3 types of coir visit Fertile Fibre

Fertile Fibre welcome a group from U3A
Fertile Fibre welcomed a group from U3A Gardeners and composters for a tour of the factory and discussion on Organic compost and Coir.
We explained the history of Fertile Fibre from Robert Hirst over 25 years ago to today. We discussed modern markets and the difficulty of getting any PR and supplying large retailers, we also followed the paper trail that is needed to conform to the Soil Association Standard and our application to join Demeter. Nobody left empty handed.
Who's next?
