Notes:
What is VolcaMin?….. The mineral from the Volcano, (Zeolite Clinoptilolite) used in Horticulture e.g. in composts/potting mixes or growing media/or as a carrier/soil ameliorant. Also used as a Silicate Fertiliser, and are superior/excellent as a carrier for slow release natural fertilisers, e.g. holding Fish liquid, seaweed or tradtitional agchem liquid fertilisers. The hard granules do not break down when swept or handled.
Origin: |
The VolcaMin minerals have been derived through in-situ from volcanic ash i.e. from a volcano. Transformation processes have resulted in a tuff with an extremely porous structure. The high absorbencies suggest these minerals have very open frameworks. Dissolution and reprecipitation of amorphous silica has resulted in a 'welded' structure that does not disaggregate in water.
|
Description: |
Mineralogically consists of quality Hydrated Calcium (Ca) Potassium Aluminosilicates essentially naturally amorphous silica mineral.

A: There are two components to the Neem Granules, the Neem Oil and the carrier granule which is a VolcaMin Zeolite. The VolcaMin Zeolite will last for years in the soil, so doesn’t really need to be re-applied too often maximum twice a year. The VolcaMin Zeolite will help hold water in the soil and also attract and hold nutrients, reducing wastage (leaching).
You can buy the Neem Plant Spray concentrate separately and apply it as often as every 2-4 weeks if you like.

First time owning lawn. Gave the team at plant doctor a ring and they supplied me with a wealth of information. Products turned up quickly.
Will definitely be getting more 8 weeks difference been using stimulizer, activ8mate, soil wetter, seaweed secrets and champion fertiliser. Was super fast delivery.
Only have great things to say about Plant Doctor. Organic products and a competitive price, fast shipping and easy to contact with questions. Have had great results with the special mix for lawns, and my plants (indoor and outdoor) love the seaweed secrets. I am excited to test out some of the animal products soon!
