FAQs

Will Go & Grow burn my plants?
Because it is made from 100% natural meals and minerals, it has a very low salt index and is unlikely to burn plants when used as directed, unlike synthetic high-nitrogen fertilizers.

How often should I apply it?
For most potted plants, a top-dress every 3-4 weeks during the growing season is ideal. For garden beds, an application at the start of spring and again in mid-summer is recommended.

Can I use this for flowering plants?
Yes, it is excellent for the vegetative stage of flowering plants. Once they begin to bud, we recommend transitioning to or mixing with Bud & Bloom to provide the phosphorus and potassium needed for fruit production.

What does the Malted Barley do?
Malted Barley is rich in enzymes (like phosphatase and chitinase) that help break down organic matter and trigger the plant’s immune system to fight off pests.
