Professional Terra 100 L Canna

Professional Terra 100 L Canna

Developed by CANNA in the Netherlands, Terra Professional 100 l Canna was created to meet the demands of modern soil cultivation, offering a stable, clean, and extremely aerated mix. Based on selected peat and a calibrated perlite content, it provides an optimal root environment that promotes rapid, healthy growth of high-yielding plants. Its balanced pre-fertilization and adjusted pH facilitate a hassle-free start-up both indoors and outdoors.

Main characteristics

– Professional blend of high-quality peat with perlite for a spongy and airy structure. – Starter pre-fertilization that feeds for 1–2 weeks, promoting vigorous establishment. – pH stabilized in the soil cultivation range for more efficient nutrient uptake. – Moderate conductivity (EC) that prevents excess and facilitates nutrient control. – High water retention with excellent drainage, reducing the risk of waterlogging and root suffocation. – Free of pathogens and weeds CANNA Terra nutrient line (Terra Vega and Terra Flores) and specific additives. – 100-liter , ideal for medium and large setups, in pots or raised beds.

Indoor and outdoor growing methods with Terra Profesional 100 l Canna

Indoors, fill pots loosely, leaving 2–3 cm (1/8–1 1/2 in) free at the rim. Moisten the substrate evenly with the first watering to achieve 10–20% drainage. For explosive growth, use Terra Vega from the first week and switch to Terra Flores at the start of flowering. Water frequently but not overwater; allow the top to dry slightly between waterings. A pH range of 6.0–6.3 for irrigation water maximizes nutrient availability in the soil. Outdoors, improve drainage with a thin layer of clay at the base of the pots. Choose container volumes commensurate with the final size: 7–11 L (7–11 L) indoors; 20–50 L (20–50 L) or more outdoors for large plants. In warm climates, shorter, more frequent waterings help maintain substrate stability. Combine with additives such as RHIZOTONIC (rooting agent), CANNA ZYM (enzymes), and a spot boost of PK 13/14 during flowering to maximize yields.

Properties of Terra Professional 100 l Canna

The soft texture and air/water balance promote a white, dense, and active root. This root environment translates into accelerated vegetative growth, contained internodes, and healthy green leaves. Pre-fertilization at the start prevents early deficiencies and simplifies the transition to liquid nutrition, allowing for fine-tuning according to the growing stage.

Effects

Direct effect on the crop: strong rooting , rapid response to fertilization, and greater uniformity between plants. During flowering, the extra aeration facilitates greater metabolic demand, promoting dense, high-quality yields .

Frequent questions

– How does it differ from Terra Professional Plus? Terra Professional Plus offers an even finer selection of raw materials and additional aeration. Terra Professional 100 l Canna delivers outstanding performance and easy fertilization control with an excellent quality/stability ratio. – How long does initial nutrition last? Between 1 and 2 weeks, depending on plant size, watering frequency, and environmental conditions. After that, liquid nutrition begins depending on the phase (vegetation/flowering). – Should I adjust the pH of the irrigation water? In soil, it is recommended to work around pH 6.0–6.3 to optimize absorption. Monitoring the EC of the drainage helps prevent buildup. – Can it be reused? Yes, by removing thick roots and applying enzymes to break down debris. For long cycles or if there have been pests/fungi, a new substrate is recommended. – Do I need to add more perlite? The mix already contains perlite. If you're looking for even more aeration, you can add an extra 10–20%, especially in humid climates or with automatic watering. – What pot sizes do you recommend? Seedlings: 0.5–1 L; Grow: 3–5 L; Indoor Flowering: 7–11 L; Outdoor: 20–50 L or more depending on growing time and objectives. – Is it compatible with organic fertilizers? Yes. Although pre-fertilization is mineral, you can feed with organic liquids without any problem, adjusting the dose according to the plant's response. – Key watering tips? Aim for 10–20% drainage with each watering, avoid overwatering, and use the "weight of the pot" as a guide. Better well-spaced, even waterings than short, very frequent waterings if the pot remains heavy.
