O Optimal substrate structure - an added benefit in crop safety Modern horticulture requires discerning quality regarding the substrate structure. This is because the structure has a direct influence on the aeration, water and heat balance of the substrate, as well as on root growth, nutrient and water absorption and the growth of the plants. Here the structural stability during the crop cultivation period is of particular significance. A substrate remains stable if the overall number of pores and the pore size distribution is retained during crop cultivation. This is of particular importance...
