🪴 General Feeding Dilution

  • Standard mix: 5 ml per 1 litre water
  • Apply to already moist soil
  • Feed during active growth periods (spring–summer)

 

🏡 Application by Plant Type
 

🌿 Houseplants (Indoor Plants)

  • Use 5 ml per litre
  • Water soil lightly
  • Frequency: Every 2–3 weeks during active growth
  • Reduce to monthly or stop in winter

 

🌸 Orchids

  • Use 2 ml per litre
  • Apply to the potting medium, avoiding crown and leaves
  • For epiphytic orchids, apply lightly to root zone only
  • Frequency: Every 6-8 weeks during active growth
  • Reduce feeding when orchids are dormant or not actively growing

 

🌳 Terrarium Plants – Closed Terrarium

  • Use 2 ml per litre (weaker due to limited space and recirculating moisture)
  • Apply lightly to substrate, avoid wetting leaves excessively
  • Frequency: When plants start to grow in a new terrarium and then only every 4 to 6 months
  • Ensure proper ventilation after feeding to prevent mould

 

🌿 Terrarium Plants – Open Terrarium

  • Use 5 ml per litre
  • Soil drench or light foliar feed, depending on species
  • Frequency: Every 2–3 weeks during active growth
  • Open terrariums tolerate slightly stronger fertiliser than closed systems

 

🌸 Flowering Plants & Ornamentals

  • Use 5 ml per litre
  • Apply to soil or as light foliar spray
  • Frequency: Every 1–2 weeks while actively flowering

 

🥬 Vegetables & Edibles

  • Use 5 ml per litre
  • Water into soil around roots
  • Frequency: Every 1–2 weeks during growing season

 

🌵 Succulents & Low-Nutrient Plants

  • Use half strength: 2.5 ml per litre
  • Apply lightly to soil
  • Frequency: Every 4–6 weeks in warm growing season only

 

⚠️ Important Safety Rules

  • Never apply to completely dry soil — water lightly first
  • Do not exceed recommended strength
  • Reduce feeding in winter or slow growth periods
  • Avoid feeding stressed, diseased, or newly repotted plants for 1–2 weeks
  • Morning or late afternoon application is best in hot weather
  • In closed terrariums, ensure good ventilation after feeding

 

💡 Quick Tips for Best Results

  • Weak regular feeding works better than strong occasional feeding
  • Good light and proper watering are more important than fertiliser
  • Yellowing older leaves often improve after consistent feeding
  • Flush pots or terrariums with plain water occasionally to prevent nutrient buildup
  • When unsure: feed weaker rather than stronger
