Add 1ml of Plant Food to a litre of water then water your plants as usual. There are measurements on the side of the pipette to help you get the ratios right, but don’t stress too much if it’s a little more or less.

Over Spring and Summer, we recommend once a month although increasing to once a fortnight if necessary is fine.

Over Autumn and Winter, plants generally slow down their growth so they don’t need as much fertiliser. Fertilising once every two months at half strength over this time is perfect. However, if your plants are still actively growing (so putting out new growth) you can continue to fertilse at the regular dilution and rate of once a month.

Yes, it can be used for orchids.

Certainly. Mix at half-strength. This is especially good for airplants! But be careful of spraying in direct sunlight - best wait until the evening. 

Our plant food is not derived from any animal products.

Yes it is. It contains both Macro (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium) and Micro (boron, iron, manganese, zinc, copper and molybdenum) nutrients, so your plants won’t want for anything.

We add one drop every two weeks, and only over Spring and Summer.

Most pure Neem once mixed has a shelf-life of around 4 days. We add a plant-based oils to the blend that extends the shelf-life of the Neem to 18 months, as well as acting as a wetting agent so the nozzle won’t clog up. These oils also extend the potency of the Neem on the plant after spraying. We do not use any synthetic preservatives in the mix.

Yes

Despite being used by many for decades as a natural insecticide, neem in Australia is not registered as an insecticide which means it cannot be marketed as such.

Wiping the dust of your plant’s foliage is an important part of plant care. Dust can build up on the leaves of indoor plants as there is no wind or rain to clean them. The dust can prevent photosynthesis and your plant will not grow to its full potential.

We recommend cleaning the leaves once a month.

Neem is noncomodegenic, which means it does not clog pores like other oils.

Neem also contains a number of beneficial proteins and can act as a natural fertiliser.

Our potting mix is made up of three different sizes of composted bark, scoria and perlite (for drainage) and cocopeat (for water retention). We also use neem granules as it helps condition the soil and may even act as a natural pest deterrent. We also include a small amount of slow release fertiliser to help your plants establish themselves early on. We deliberately steer clear of peat moss as it's harder to find sustainable sources of peat.

The seaweed tablets help keep the mix conditioned longer, so it won’t dry out as quick. It also acts as a natural fertiliser and may encourage root growth. Place one table under the root ball while potting, and over time it will break down and be absorbed by the plant and the potting mix.

Our potting tarps are 100% biodegradable and compostable, so when you’re done with them you can either chuck it in the compost or throw it in the bin and sleep easy knowing that it will break down and won’t contribute to landfill. It can be used as many times as you need. Its 1m2 so your floors will stay mess free while you do the dirty work.

Our potting mix has a potting up guide on the back so you won’t be flying blind. If you need any more info, you can check out our potting up guide on our blog, here

Unfortunately we can’t ship our potting mixes to Western Australia, Tasmania or the Northern Territory.

If your plant is 130mm or smaller, we recommend using half a tablet when potting up.

Sure can! Dig to a depth of at least 3cm and cover up with soil.

We ship out orders every day of the week so we can get your goodies to you as fast as possible. All orders are (99% of the time) shipped out next business day.

You’ll receive confirmation once your order has been shipped. It will contain the courier details and the tracking number so you can check in and make sure it's on the move.

We’ve designed special boxes to house the plants during shipping. We also use express posts where possible and we never ship out plant orders on a Friday (so they won’t sit in a store room over the weekend).

Sure can! If you’re thinking about sending a gift then we recommend getting in touch before you make your purchase so we can have everything ready. Because of our quick turn around time we might not always receive your email before your package has been packed and sent!

If you need a tax invoice with your order just shoot us an email with your order number and we’ll send it out to you. We do not print and send invoices with the orders as we are trying to minimise unnecessary use of paper
