100 litre bag - approx 2.5m tall (Please call to confirm height, as heights change often throughout the seasons.) | Charlie Carp All Purpose is one of Australia's best organically based, environmentally friendly general-purpose liquid fertiliser. This award-winning general fertiliser that can be used on all plants and shrubs, is organically based and is made from European carp, a pest that is destroying Australian waterways.
The 1 litre concentrate All Purpose Fertiliser is an economical way to get the most out of a bottle. Standard dilution rate is 10ml to 1 litre of water (1 cap full = 10ml) or alternatively if using a standard watering can (9 litres) – 90ml of concentrate into 9 litres of water.
- For the best results we recommend applying to the foliage until saturated to the point of dripping – this allows the plants to take in the nutrients immediately, and the run-off drips into the soil feeding the roots.
- Charlie Carp is best applied on its own as mixing with other products may effect performance.
- When temperatures exceed 32°C do not apply to foliage as leaf or fruit damage may be possible.
Use Charlie Carp for all plants & shrubs including: Lawns, Vegetables, Flowers, Indoor Plants, Hanging Baskets, Strawberries, Palms, Orchids, Roses, Ferns, Native Shrubs, Seedlings, Herbs.
