Get ready for new peat-free introductions from RocketGro

RocketGro may be a relatively new name within the world of peat-free growing media, but the team isn’t wasting any time in setting a new standard for the presentation, innovation and breadth of peat-free products being g gbrought to market. Demonstrative of this are the four brand brand new new productsproducts s set set to to join oinj the the line-up l line-up ahead heada of of the the new new 2023 2023 season. season.

RocketGro’s eRock xciting new 2023 additions ddi – Peat-Free Seed & Cutting Compost with added John Innes, Peat-Free Multi-Purpose Compost with added John Innes, Peat-Free Container & Basket Compost and Peat-Free Beds & Borders Compost – are the result of two key elements for the brand: extensive research and a greater understanding regarding the substrates that are used to give RocketGro products a unique point of difference. Promising a “real alternative” to those growing media brands that have been sat on garden centre shelves for so long, RocketGro is working hard to demonstrate to garden retailers that visibility of material and processes isn’t just another marketing strategy but something that can and will make a difference in the retail environment, particularly as consumers become more environmentally responsible. RocketGro’s highly-effective, professional grade compost blends all benefit from the inclusion of sustainable digestate fibre/ composted maize, rye and grass. But, unlike other products on the

etGro’s exciting ne ti P t F S w 2023 d & market, this is not a bought-in benefit! This digestate is, in fact, a by-product of renewable bio-gas production from the company’s own Somerset-based farm. This approach to circular economy production and usage makes RocketGro products uniquely different. Meanwhile, continued development of the digestate results in products that consistently deliver and have the added benefit of improvements being made every season. For 2023, a longer maturation of the digestate – coupled with the inclusion of new invaluable substrates, such as wood chip and John Innes – means these new additions will offer some of the best results on the market today: something that RocketGro is confident that independent trials at Stockbridge Technology Centre will definitively prove later this year. RocketGro Director, Toby Thomas said: “RocketGro has a low-carbon, peat-free, 100%-sustainable, Soil Association-approved, UK-grown, -manufactured, -sourced and -produced eco story that is hard to match. With a 12-strong product portfolio, that is continually evolving,

we are creating a brand offering that is currently unmatched in this industry. Peat-free growing media isn’t just part of what we do, it’s the very heart of RocketGro and we know that this matters to both retailers and consumers.
