Week Four - Seek Balance
Scotts Organic Plant Food
You can support organics in your home garden too! Find out more about this sustainable plant food that won't slow the grow.
Week 4 of Australian Organic Awareness Month is all about seeking balance and finding simple and effective ways that you can incorporate organic practices into your lifestyle. One such example is in your home garden, where you don’t need to rely on harmful chemical inputs to grow healthy fruits, vegetables and plants.
When it comes to pest and disease control in your garden, it wasn’t too long ago that many home gardeners would turn to the nearest chemical off the shelf and administer it, without thinking about the long-term residual issues for their immediate environment.
Fortunately, the certified organic movement has brought a number of innovative solutions and products to the fore.
Grow stronger, healthier, happier plants
Building and maintaining an organic home garden has never been simpler, with a range of certified allowed inputs on the market that give you peace of mind that you’re treating your plants with the best possible nutrition.
One such example is Scotts® Organic, who have recently released a comprehensive Organic Plant Food range specifically designed for organic gardens.
This range contains a variety of products, including liquid fertilisers, concentrates, potting mix and much more. All products are certified to the Australian Certified Organic ‘Bud’ Standard, meaning you can trust that the formulations are free from toxic chemicals and pesticides.
Evergreen gardening support, all year round
Maintaining the best possible soil health is the bedrock of organic practices on large-scale farms, but the same rings true for your home garden as well. Quite literally, your organic choices start from the ground up! Healthy soil is a vast expanse of macro-organisms, microbes, beneficial fungi and bacteria. These organisms will interact and work with plant roots to make them more effective at drawing up soil moisture, leading to stronger and more disease-resistant plants in the long term.
Products in the Scotts Organic Plant Food range are designed to supply quality nutrition for all plant types, including fruits, veggies, herbs and natives. Made with natural plant fertilisers, fish, humic acid and seaweed, the formulations work to encourage beneficial microbes and keep soil healthy.
