In this episode we expose the environmental and health risks of granular controlled‑release fertilisers: non‑biodegradable resin granules often contain micro- and nanoplastics that persist in soils and can be taken up by plants. Recent research shows nanoplastics can accumulate in edible parts of crops, raising concerns for food safety.
The host explains why many retail granules (e.g., Miracle‑Gro, Osmocote) aren’t truly biodegradable, discusses alternatives like plastic‑free liquid fertilisers and small, frequent feeding, and shares industry insights and Eutrema’s approach to safer options.
