Hozelock’s BioMix is an award winning product which enables you to easily create your own nutrient-rich liquid plant food or natural insecticide. It consists of a tank with mixing handle, a filter which strains out liquid, and a tap which enables you to fill up a sprayer for use in your garden.
Plants such as nettles are ideal for turning into fertiliser – with BioMix you simply add 1kg of them into the tank, followed by 10 litres of water, close the lid and then mix the solution every 2 days for 1-3 weeks. When your solution is ready for use, the tap at the bottom of the tank lets you pour out the filtered liquid into a sprayer or container. Then once it’s been diluted with water it’s ready for use. Biomix pays back after only 2 uses: the manufacture of 10 litres of plant fertiliser (1x Biomix production) is the equivalent of purchasing 10 x 1 litre packs of plant feed!
Bee-friendly comfrey makes a highly nutritional natural plant feed – high in potassium and micro-nutrients for flowering and fruiting plants. Try the Bocking 14 variety which doesn’t cast seeds and spread in your garden.
Substitute nettles for high nitrogen feed to promote leafy growth – Gives a good boost to your plants that have suffered from frost or hail damage and stimulates young plants in spring.
Got a problem with pests? – Lavender solution is a great deterrent for ants or try bracken fern to repel aphids. You can add a spoonful of black soap to improve adhesion of the solution.
