The prohibition of the use of xaxim fiber as substrate, because its raw material source (Dicksonia sellowiana) was listed as an endangered species, lead to the need of looking for other kinds of substrate. Banana tree cultivation produces a large amount of pseudostem residues, which, due to their ph ...
