FEATURES
- Feeds when plants need it by releasing nutrients according to temperature - more when it's warm, less when it's cold

- Controlled release means feeding less often and more effectively; less frequent feeding is more economical and environment-friendly
- Added wetting agent enhances water absorption into the soil or potting mix and helps plants take up nutrients
- Less than 2% phosphorus (the 'P' in NPK) means it can be safely used on most Australian natives

- Safe to use on new plants - the controlled release of nutrients means it will not burn soft leaves or tender young roots
