Why use "REAL" heather soil and not "SO-CALLED" heather soil?

"So-called" heather soil is mainly composed of peat, a mixture of several materials (pine bark, compost, etc.) and fertilizer. This substrate aims to imitate real heather soil and to get closer to the natural environment in which these acid-loving plants grow. It is important to know that this type of soil is not specifically linked to heather. Although cheaper, this substrate is often too acidic for these plants.

The "real" Tonusol heather soil is composed of 100% forest soil from Sologne (France). It comes from the decomposition of heather (stems, leaves, roots). It is found where heather grows naturally, such as in undergrowth rich in sand or at the foot of conifers. Naturally acidic, an essential element for these acid-loving plants that do not tolerate limestone, it is porous, aerated and ready to use without the incorporation of other products. Real heather soil has a cultivation autonomy of at least 6 months, water inputs are reduced by 50%.
