PRO7 BATMIX

an exceptional soil blend enriched with BAT GUANO, designed for high yields!

PRO7 BATMIX is an exceptional soil blend designed for high yields and with transplanting in mind. A blend of Baltic dark and white peat with perlite, bat guano, a base fertiliser, trace elements, and lime, it offers excellent aeration, and is less prone to compaction due to its unique composition.

The mix of peat and perlite gives excellent aeration and an ideal air to water ratio. Base fertilisation gives plants an excellent start, while the bat guano, rich in macro and micronutrients, offers long term background nutrition. This substrate also encourages naturally occurring beneficial microbes and fungi to ensure healthier, more vigorous plants and increased yields.

How to use:

Transplanting: PRO7  BATMIX is ready to plant straight into. Simply fill your pot and then tap to help the mix settle. Next, pre-water using water at 18-20 °C, pH 6.5-7.5. (Tap water is fine) until run-off occurs.  We recommend leaving the pot to stand for 24 hours after watering. This will encourage beneficial microbes to become active and colonise your plants’ roots. Then, plant out.

Growing On: We suggest using a high quality nutrient like VitaLink Earth MAX to water your plants when using PRO7 Bat Mix. Use Vitalink Earth MAX Grow at 1-2 ml per litre of water for young plants. For established plants use Vitalink Earth MAX Grow at 2-4 ml/L.

Extra nutrition may be needed after the first 2-4 weeks depending on the growing conditions, crop type and crop condition.

For those utilizing automated irrigation systems, it is essential to ensure that water is effectively distributed and drains properly throughout the substrate. Excessive moisture can lead to the development of algae and mold, as well as compaction, which may ultimately result in plant disease.

Frequently asked questions about BATMIX

When transplanting, fill a pot and then tap to help the mix settle. Pre-water until run-off occurs. using water at 18-20 °C, pH 6.5-7.5. Tap water is fine, but ideally let the mix stand for 24 hours prior to use. Then, plant out.

We suggest you start feeding your plants after 2-4 weeks for mineral based nutrients such as Vitalink Earth, or after 2 weeks if using an organic feed as it can take up to two weeks for organic nutrients to become available to the plant.

Firstly make sure you water in your plant when planting or pre-wet your substrate prior to planting ideally with luke warm water as this will activate natural microorganisms to colonise the substrate. You can dose with beneficial microbe blends to speed this up.

No, if growing with organic nutrients or Vitalink Earth you should not need to regulate pH and EC strictly.

PRO7 BATMIX provides sustained nutritional support for your plants through the inclusion of nutrient rich bat guano. Bat guano is an organic nutrient, renowned for its beneficial impact on growth and flowering processes. Its properties render it particularly advantageous for plants that prioritize flower and fruit development.

Beneficial microbes will colonise your plants’ roots quickly and efficiently, reducing transplant shock. They will also help to break down the bat guano to release nutrients over time, providing a long-term supply for your plants.

The pH of PRO7 BATMIX is set at 5.9, which is optimum for nutrient availability for your plants; it comes pre-buffered with lime, minimising large pH swings.
