Product detailed description
BioBizz Light-Mix is a lightly pre-fertilised, high-quality substrate intended primarily for growers who want to regulate nutrition themselves with liquid fertilisers from the start. Thanks to the low nutrient content in the substrate, it provides an ideal basis for vigorous growth of seedlings, young plants and cuttings – fertilising is needed from the very first days.
Features and use
- Low EC (1.2) – the substrate will not over-fertilise even sensitive young plants.
- Specially adapted for optimum drainage, also suitable for automatic irrigation systems.
- Ensures rapid root development and dynamic growth.
- Suitable for growing in pots, window boxes and containers.
With automatic irrigation, it is important that water properly penetrates the substrate; otherwise, mould may develop.
Composition and parameters

BioBizz products contain primarily natural organic elements, not mineral salts such as magnesium or sulphates, as found in synthetic fertilisers.
How to continue feeding
As Light-Mix contains few nutrients, start fertilising during the first weeks. Use Root-Juice for rooting, then follow with Bio-Grow during the growth phase. If you prefer a substrate with a higher nutrient content that feeds the plant itself for several weeks, see BioBizz All-Mix. Exact dosages can be found in the BioBizz feeding chart.
Frequently asked questions
When should I start fertilising in Light-Mix?
From the first days of growing – the substrate has a low EC of 1.2 and does not contain enough nutrients for a longer period, so it is necessary to fertilise with liquid fertilisers (e.g. Root-Juice to start) right from the beginning.
What is the difference between Light-Mix and All-Mix?
Light-Mix has a low EC of 1.2 and must be fertilised immediately, whereas All-Mix is heavily pre-fertilised (EC 2.4) and feeds the plant without additional fertilising for several weeks.
Is Light-Mix suitable for automatic irrigation?
Yes, it is specially adapted for optimum drainage. However, care must be taken to ensure that water properly penetrates the entire substrate; otherwise, mould may develop.
