GARDEN GOLD Organic Houseplant Food

Dosage for Houseplant Formula

15 ml = 1 tablespoon

5 ml = 1 teaspoon

Dosage and application

• Young, small or sensitive houseplants
  5 ml per 1 liter water
  Start lightly, especially after purchasing or repotting a plant, or when feeding sensitive varieties.
• Regular houseplants during active growth
  8–10 ml per 1 liter water
  Use as the standard dosage for established houseplants that are actively producing new leaves or shoots.
• Large or fast-growing houseplants
  10–15 ml per 1 liter water
  Suitable for larger plants and vigorous varieties that are visibly producing plenty of new growth.

How often to use

During active growth, feed your houseplants once every 1–2 weeks. Regular feeding at a suitable dosage works better than giving an occasional heavy dose.

Adjust the dosage and frequency according to the season, available light, pot size, plant size and growth rate. Apply the diluted feed onto slightly moist potting soil and distribute it around the root zone.

Seasonal feeding guide

• March–May
  Resume regular feeding as daylight increases and new growth appears. Start lightly with plants that have grown slowly during winter.
• June–September
  Feed regularly while houseplants are actively producing new leaves and shoots. Larger or faster-growing plants may need a higher dosage within the recommended range.
• October–February
  Reduce the dosage or extend the interval when light levels fall and growth slows. Stop feeding temporarily if the plant is not actively growing.

The highlighted months are indicative. Indoor temperature, daylight and artificial growing lights can affect the growing season. Follow the plant’s growth rather than the calendar alone: houseplants that continue growing actively may still benefit from light feeding outside the highlighted period.

Combining with Sea-Prime

For additional support during active growth, alternate Houseplant Formula with Sea-Prime. Use Houseplant Formula for one feeding, Sea-Prime for the next, and then Houseplant Formula again. Continue repeating this alternating cycle while the plant is actively growing.

Use 5–10 ml Sea-Prime per 1 liter water when applying it through watering. You do not need to mix or apply both products during the same feeding.

Sea-Prime through the roots or leaves?

Use Sea-Prime through watering around the roots as part of the regular alternating routine. Alternatively, apply it as a foliar spray at 2–5 ml per 1 liter water during active growth or when plants need additional support.

Apply as a foliar spray preferably early in the morning or later in the day and never in full sun. Spray both sides of the leaves lightly and evenly, paying particular attention to the undersides, where most stomata—tiny pores through which plants exchange gases—are located.
