Garden Lime more >

Garden Lime

Garden Lime A very essential product for any keen gardener, Proctors Garden Lime is excellent in increasing ph levels on all soils types where a reduction in soil acidity is required. Very acid soils prevent nutrients being available to the plant, and can greatly reduce productivity, especially around the allotment. Know what ph your crop likes, then test, and lime accordingly. Be sure to lime 6 months apart from nitrogen fertilisers, as they can cancel each other out, and react badly in the soil.     Buy Now

Sulphate of Iron +Fe more >

Sulphate of Iron +Fe

Sulphate of Iron Iron is a trace element used in many fertilisers, but alone it's used mainly on lawns.

Single Superphosphate (0-18-0) more >

Single Superphosphate (0-18-0)

Single Superphosphate Made by the action of sulphuric acid on raw rock phosphate (also called Appatite) this is one of the world's most important fertilisers, and probable one of the oldest inorganic ones. Partly soluble and a usable form of phosphorous by plants, it must be well dug in. Ideal for feeding root vegetables such as carrots and beetroot, it also assists in seed germination. Use in soils containing a sufficiency of lime so as not to waste this valuable nutrient through poor plant uptake.     Buy Now

Magnesium Sulphate + MgO + SO4 more >

Magnesium Sulphate + MgO + SO4

Magnesium Sulphate Also known as Epsom salts, MgO is necessary for the colouring of leaves. Heavy rain will readily wash MgO out of light soils and can also be low when potash or high-potassium fertilisers have been used. MgO deficiency can affect vegetables like cabbages, lettuces and potatoes, fruit such as apples, cherries and grapes. Leaves turn yellow between veins and around the edges, and may eventually turn red, purple or brown. Apply as a foliar spray or spread over the soil.     Buy Now

Application rate:17g sq. m. Rake in well.
Calcified Seaweed Meal more >

Calcified Seaweed Meal

Dried Blood The cycle created by this organic fertiliser is a significant reason for its importance.

Quickly colonized by bacteria living in soil, they feed off the huge reservoirs of calcium, nitrogen and phosphorus available in the seaweed, enriching the soil quality. The fertiliser nutrients are also transferred directly to the root structures of plants, making calcified seaweed doubly effective as a fertiliser product.

Plants need nutrients beyond calcium, nitrogen and phosphorous, such as iron and carbon, and with additional trace elements, calcified seaweed can provide it all.

Notable for its flexibility, calcified seaweed not only regulates the ph. of your soil, but it can also be used throughout the calendar year.     Buy Now

Application rate:75g sq. m.
Kieserite more >

Kieserite

Dried Blood

Kieserite, permitted as an organic nutrient source by the European Commission Regulation, is an earth mineral mined from naturally occurring marine deposits. Chemically known as magnesium sulphate monohydrate, it provides soluble sources of both Magnesium and Sulphur for plant nutrition, and is not effected by, or effects, soil ph. Essential for healthy leaves and photosynthesis, a deficiency in magnesium is common in tomatoes, apples, grape vines, raspberries, roses and rhododendrons.
