A commercial-grade soluble feed made for the edible half of the garden. It goes beyond straight NPK with humic acid, bio-stimulants and beneficial bacteria, which is what lifts water uptake and nutrient absorption rather than simply dumping nutrients in the soil. One 250g pouch makes up to 50 litres of feed.
Key Features
- It goes a long way. A 250g pouch makes up to 50 litres of made-up feed.
- Commercial grade. A complete formula for fruit, vegetables and herbs.
- Humic acid and bio-stimulants. They increase water uptake and nutrient absorption.
- Beneficial bacteria. They support the soil, not just the plant.
- The result. Improved plant vigour and maximised yields.
- Soluble. Dissolves in water, so it suits watering cans, veggie beds, herb pots and fruit trees.
Pūrē Standard
- It feeds the soil biology as well as the plant. Humic acid and beneficial bacteria improve how well roots can actually take up what you give them. A lot of edible-garden feeds are just soluble salts, which gives you a green flush and not much else.
- The maths is very good. A 250g pouch makes up to 50 litres, so one pouch covers a season of a decent veggie patch. Shipping powder rather than water is the sensible way to buy fertiliser.
- Commercial-grade, sold in a domestic size. This is the formulation growers use, in a pouch that fits in a garden caddy. The label claims are specific and measurable, which we prefer to vague "organic goodness" wording.
- Where we would like more. The Home Plant Co publish no NPK ratio, no full ingredient breakdown and no country of manufacture. They are Australian owned and operated and run by certified horticulturists, but for a fertiliser the analysis is the number you actually want, so check the pouch. The pouch itself is a laminate, which is not kerbside recyclable, and that is the weakest part of an otherwise efficient product.

Our Take
A commercial-grade feed in a domestic-sized pouch, made for the corner of the garden you actually eat. One 250g pouch makes up to 50 litres, so the maths is embarrassingly good. For anyone growing dinner rather than just decor.
