We have a long history and more than 120 years of expertise and market knowledge in the field of substrates, research and innovation. In the Lensli Academy we regularly inform you about practical situations that we encounter in the sector, we talk about insights gained in practice, we give you cultivation tips and we share our knowledge about all other interesting substrate-related matters.

This week's topic is “Pesticides in potting soil and substrate”.

Pesticides are hazardous substances that combat pests, usually to protect crops. After use of pesticides, residues can sometimes remain in the environment for a long time. Can pesticide residues also occur in potting soil or substrates and what are the risks then?

RHP has written an extensive factsheet on this interesting and important topic, and we are happy to include this article in our own Academy.
