Indoor Plant Food
Odourless, with a Dropper
Outdoors, roots go looking for what they need. Indoors, a plant is stuck in a pot with whatever is already in it.
- A complete feed, NPK plus seaweed
- Almost completely odourless
- A marked dropper, so you measure
- 1ml per litre, no extra step
For Christmas, order by 16 December, or 18 December in WA. All dates
The one thing most indoor plants are quietly missing. Outdoors, roots go looking for what they need. Indoors, a plant is stuck in a pot with whatever you give it, and once the nutrients in the mix are used up there is nowhere else to go. This is a complete liquid feed of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, secondary nutrients, trace elements and seaweed extract, in a form roots can readily take up.
Which One Do I Need?
- 100ml Dropper Bottle. The one to start with. It comes with a marked dropper and makes up to 100 litres of feed. Fed fortnightly, that is well over a year for most collections.
- 500ml Glass Refill. Top up the dropper bottle you already own instead of buying another. It makes up to 500 litres at the same 1ml per litre.
Key Features
- A complete feed. NPK with secondary nutrients, trace elements and seaweed extract.
- Almost completely odourless. No fish-emulsion smell in the lounge room.
- A marked dropper. Supplied with the 100ml bottle, so you are measuring rather than guessing.
- Simple dosing. 1ml per litre, with no extra step in your routine.
- Origin. Made in Melbourne, designed by horticulturists.
Pūrē Standard
- The maths is very good. The 100ml makes up to 100 litres of feed, which is well over a year of fortnightly feeding for most collections. Concentrates are the sensible way to buy fertiliser: you are not paying to ship water.
- It refills, so you buy the bottle once. The 500ml glass refill exists precisely so the dropper bottle is not disposable. That is the whole reason we stock both sizes together.
- Odourless matters more than it sounds. The reason people stop feeding their plants is usually that the fertiliser smells like a harbour. This does not, so it actually gets used.
- The dropper is the underrated part. Most liquid feeds get glugged in by eye, and overfeeding burns roots. A marked dropper turns it into a measurement.
- Feeding is the last piece, not the first. Plant Runner say so themselves: get light, water and mix right, and a good feed is what turns surviving into new leaves. We appreciate a brand that tells you their product is not the whole answer.

How to Use
- Dose. Add 1ml per litre to your watering can using the marked dropper, and water as normal.
- How often. Feed fortnightly while your plants are actively growing.
- Winter. Ease off, when most plants are not growing and cannot use it.

Our Take
The feed that actually gets used, because it does not smell like a harbour and the dropper means you are measuring rather than guessing. The 100ml makes 100 litres, well over a year for most collections.

Frequently asked
Which size should I buy?
Start with the 100ml dropper bottle: it comes with the marked dropper and makes up to 100 litres of feed, which is well over a year of fortnightly feeding for most collections. Once it runs out, buy the 500ml glass refill and top the same bottle up rather than buying another dropper.
How far does it go?
At the recommended 1ml per litre, the 100ml makes up to 100 litres and the 500ml refill makes up to 500 litres. That is around 14 cents a litre of made-up feed.
Does it smell?
Almost not at all, which is the point. Most liquid fertilisers smell like a harbour, and that is usually why people stop using them.
What is in it?
A complete liquid feed of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, plus secondary nutrients, trace elements and seaweed extract, in a form roots can readily take up.
How do I use it?
Add 1ml per litre to your watering can and water as normal. Feed fortnightly while plants are actively growing, and ease off through winter when they are not.
Why does the dropper matter?
Because overfeeding burns roots. Most liquid feeds get glugged in by eye. A marked dropper turns it into a measurement rather than a guess. The dropper comes with the 100ml bottle; the 500ml is a plain refill.
