Root Grow Rootfood 900g What is rootgrow rootfood?
Root Grow rootfood is a natural fertiliser based on humates. Humates are recognized by soil scientists and agronomists as the most important component of a natural healthy fertile soil. They result from the breakdown of organic matter, which has been forming and reforming on our planet over millions of years. They are a form of concentrated super compost and essential to life in the soil.
Many gardens can be deficient in these natural humates and this can lead to poor plant growth and establishment, poor soil water-retention, and a depletion of beneficial micro-organisms such as friendly mycorrhizal fungi (rootgrow).
Humates work at much lower rates of application than traditional fertilisers so are better for the environment and far less likely to leach away, unlike chemical fertilisers
Existing plants, borders and lawns
For existing plants and mature gardens apply with a watering can. Half fill a 2 gallon or 9 Litre watering can with water add one scoop of rootgrow rootfood stir well and leave to stand for a few minutes. Then stir well again, top up the watering can, and water over 2 square metres. After treating the entire desired area if there is any residue left in the watering can fill with warm water and leave to stand for half an hour and apply evenly to the treated area.
Foliar leaf feeds
rootgrow rootfood can also be applied as a foliar feed. Mix up the feed as described above for existing plants. Lightly wet the foliage of plants in the morning or in the evening every 2 weeks to a month and allow to dry on the surface of the leaf. The nutrients will be absorbed directly through the leaf.
