Grow Nurture Protect

Within our Grow, Nurture and Protect seminars Andrew Wilson will be analysing the day-to-day nursery management challenges growers are facing. With the loss of chemical active ingredients, increasing use of biologicals and advanced technical fertilizers that closely match plant demands, there is plenty for growers to think about. Andrew will be joined by guest speakers to help define these issues and solutions from the ICL stable of products while encouraging an active Q&A on subjects including IPM and good disease management.

“ Osmocote consistently gives us the results we are looking for.”

Rodney Shearer, Alba Trees, using Osmocote CRF as part of their Levington Advance Solution

ICL’s Levington Advance Solutions tailored growing media programme allows you to Grow, Nurture and Protect your crops throughout the growing season in complete confidence.

Rodney is Managing Director and one of the founding directors at Alba. “As production grew and became increasingly sophisticated we started to look around for a more consistent, quality growing media,” he says. “Having conducted a series of in-house trials we were particularly impressed by the overall high performance and consistency of Levington Advance growing media mixes, and switched to ICL.” For the nutrition programme Rodney has put his trust in Osmocote controlled release fertilizer, pre mixed in to the growing media.

“All our growing mixes contain Osmocote Exact Standard (12-14 months),” he says. “This consistently gives us the results we are looking for.”

“ Since incorporating Prestop 95% of our bare root perennials have taken.”

David Mills, Clockhouse Nursery, using Osmocote CRF, Prestop and Exemptor as part of their Levington Advance Solutions




ICL’s Levington Advance Solutions tailored growing media programme allows you to Grow, Nurture and Protect your crops throughout the growing season.

Situated at Forty Hill, just inside the M25 near Enfield in North London, the Clockhouse nursery has a turnover of £3million. Founded in 1928, the nursery is run by the founder’s grandson David Mills.

“While originally we self mixed, we’ve switched to Levington Advance Solutions mixes,” says David. “For precision nutrition we rely on Osmocote Hi.End or Osmocote Exact Standard. We use Osmocote Bloom in all our bedding production.”

Clockhouse is now also incorporating Prestop bio-fungicide in to their Levington Advance Solutions bespoke mixes. “Since using Prestop 95% of our bare root perennials have taken.”

“While the growing media quality and consistency is always good, so too is ICL’s service which is efficient and friendly.”

For nutrition, Bransford Webbs use Osmocote. “Osmocote makes life much easier for us.” says Karl.

The nursery also uses Exemptor. “We see Exemptor as an essential tool for vine weevil and sciarid control while it also helps controls aphid and whitefly,”

“With Levington Advance Solutions, the growing media, nutrition and protection is optimised. It is great to have these things taken care of leaving us to concentrate our efforts on other areas.”
