" footling by little we are reach more and more results . We have moved from theory to practice on all fronts . Our Plastic - Free Crop projection is gaining ground with the use ofFertil Potcultivation pots . These are 100 % biodegradable and made from industrial plant fiber . QuickPot pots , made from 100 % recycled and reusable credit card , can be washed and reuse for more than 10 years , " said Alessandro Guglielmi , sale manager of Energy Green from Borgosatollo ( Brescia ) , Italy .
" The company we are now working with have been able to adapt to the new standard of the biodegradable system and whelm an initial skepticism . The feedback so far has been positive . To give an example , the herbs of Bio&Co , sold by Floricoltura Gagliolo from Albenga , are delivered in a beautiful wooden boxful . The plant are grown by the baby’s room FK BIO , where our good friend Fabio Ravera has not only acquire our philosophy , but also has the merit of have a societal commitment in his output chain . The herb are all grown in a Fertil Pot that can merely be transplanted with the plant , " said Guglielmi .

Guglielmi emphasized on the importance of grow the plants in the Fertil Pot ( pictured below ) . In this path , they reach the consumer without any disposable packaging lie around .
" But in the wake of the biodegradable Fertil Pot ’s succeeder , there has been an influx of pots made of recycled composition , cellulose and other materials , but where the flora are grow in plastic pots and transplanted shortly before they are released on the marketplace . The unsuspecting consumers thus think they are helping to reduce defilement , while the disposable pots , used until just before , are simply throw away earlier by someone else . " From an agronomic power point of view , the industrial plant can not right away permeate this type of potty and therefore suffers a eminent transplanting shock . Moreover , when the paper degrades , it consume atomic number 7 , subtracting it from the availability of the plant itself .
