- Intervention effect Tomato plantlet nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium uptake was reduced in organic growing media compared with peat-based control media.
- Recommendation The results indicate potential to optimize organic media to increase nutrient acquisition and utilization efficiency.
- Recommendation Improved organic growing media may supply most necessary plant nutrients and limit supplementary fertilisation.
