A.Zand, klei, veen and substraten

B.Only potting compost and hydroponic gel

C.Sandstone, granite and limestone only

D.Only artificial turf and mulch

Explanation: P/GR/1.2.1 lists zand, klei, veen and substraten as the common grondsoorten and teeltmedia BB candidates recognise.

2Generative plant propagation starts from which plant part?

A.Seeds (zaad)

B.Stem cuttings only

C.Root division only

D.Grafted twigs only

Explanation: Generative vermeerdering uses seeds (sexual reproduction). Vegetative methods use plant parts such as stekken, scheuren or bollen.

3Which action is an example of vegetative vermeerdering listed in the Groen syllabus?

A.Stekken (taking cuttings)

B.Sowing seeds in trays

C.Buying ready plants from retail only

D.Waiting for natural seed fall without intervention

Explanation: P/GR/1.2.3 includes stekken among vegetative methods BB candidates perform from instructions, alongside scheuren, enten, bollen, etc.

4The nutrient elements N, P, K, Ca and Mg in fertilisation primarily refer to:

A.Nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium

B.Nickel, platinum, krypton, carbon and manganese

C.Sodium, potassium, chlorine, calcium and methane

D.Nitrate packaging codes only

Explanation: P/GR/1.2.1 requires BB candidates to name the fertiliser elements N, P, K, Ca and Mg when bemesting ground or substrate.

5Why do growers often support or tie up (ondersteunen/opbinden) certain crops?

A.To keep stems upright, improve light exposure and reduce damage

B.To stop photosynthesis permanently

C.To replace watering entirely

D.To sterilise soil microbes

Explanation: Teeltwerkzaamheden in P/GR/1.2 include ondersteunen and opbinden as crop-care actions that protect structure and improve growing conditions.

6When sorting harvested products, the syllabus lists criteria including:

A.Weight, size (maat), colour, quality and ripeness

B.Only brand logo and barcode

C.Only transport company name

D.Only wholesale auction number

Explanation: P/GR/1.2.6 states BB candidates sort products by gewicht, maat, kleur, kwaliteit and rijpheid.

7A BB candidate following instructions is asked to assess oogstrijpheid. What does that mean?

A.Judging whether the crop/product meets harvest-ripeness norms

B.Counting only the number of greenhouse lights

C.Measuring tractor fuel only

D.Ignoring appearance and harvesting at a fixed clock time only

Explanation: P/GR/1.2.6: candidates beoordelen rijpheid using norms for oogstrijpheid before harvesting.

8Which storage factor is explicitly listed for keeping products under correct bewaarcondities at BB level?

A.Cooling (koeling)

B.Leaving produce in direct midday sun on asphalt

C.Storing wet leafy greens in sealed hot plastic without airflow

D.Mixing chemicals with edible produce for ‘preservation’

Explanation: P/GR/1.2.6 storage conditions include bescherming tegen weersinvloeden, koeling, drogen and light amount.

9Organische bemesting differs from anorganische bemesting mainly because organic fertilisers:

A.Come from plant/animal materials (e.g. compost, manure) rather than manufactured mineral salts alone

B.Contain no nutrients at all

C.Always raise soil pH above 12

D.Replace the need for water

Explanation: Syllabus bemesting tasks distinguish organische and anorganische fertilisation; organic sources are material-based (mest/compost), mineral fertilisers are anorganic.

10Vruchtwisseling (crop rotation) in a teeltplan is used mainly to:

A.Reduce disease/pest build-up and balance soil nutrient use over seasons

B.Grow the identical crop in the same bed forever for maximum risk

C.Eliminate the need for any light

D.Convert all soils instantly to concrete

Explanation: KB-level teeltplan items highlight vruchtwisseling; BB candidates should still understand rotation as a sound practice against pests/diseases and soil imbalance linked to teelt planning.
