Gartenerde im Test: Mikroplastik in Produkten entdeckt | 2026 | Kassensturz | SRF

For those who want uncontaminated vegetables, growing them yourself is the best option. But beware, the contamination starts in the soil: A specialized laboratory has found large quantities of microplastics in garden soil sold in retail stores. The consumer affairs program "Kassensturz" reveals that this microplastic can enter the root system and from there into the supposedly healthy vegetables. The following garden soils were tested: 🥇 Hornbach | Universal Garden Soil (Peat-Free) 🥈 Mioplant | Universal Soil 🥉 Capito | Universal Soil ● Oecoplan | Compo ● Schilliger | Organic Vegetable Soil ● Grow | Peat-free potting soil -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🎞️Stream more "Kassensturz" on 👉 Play SRF: https://www.srf.ch/play/tv/sendung/ka... 🔔 Don't want to miss anything on this channel?
