Nutrient Uptake Enhancement: By adding chitin from insect frass to soil, nutrient uptake is improved, leading to better growth, yields, and overall plant health.
Soil Structure Enhancement: Chitin helps to improve soil structure by promoting the growth of beneficial microorganisms that break down organic matter, leading to better aeration and water retention.
Eco-Friendly and Sustainable: Insect frass is a sustainable and eco-friendly source of chitin, making it an excellent choice for growers who care about natural and environmentally conscious ways to improve plant growth.

Using the dry amendments for IPM. Definitely a decrease in the devouring little critters.
Fruit roids and fish hydrolysate in the water and results are impressive.
Thanks Dr Gt. Great products.

Thanks for the chance to review the Fruit Roids.
I'm seeing a noticeable difference every time I hit all my flowering and fruiting trees, together with your Root Roids I haven't had any problems with any deficiencies along the way.
I do make a tee up with your dry amendments also, looking awesome.
Thanks again. Cheers.
I purchased this kit a couple of months ago and I’m extremely happy with it. The quality is heavy duty and just amazing. Highly recommend these for someone looking for quality at a reasonable price.
This Bonsai mix is the best thing since sliced bread!
This was my second order of this premium + mix. It has such a perfectly balanced mix of components to ensure that the right levels of drainage are maintained, whilst also staying moist. This is very important with bonsai as in the warmer months you don’t want any rapid drying of soil. My Bonsai went into this mix last autumn and they have given the vote of confidence and have never looked healthier.
Do yourself a favour and try out this top notch bonsai soil recipe. No nasty and dead fillers to be seen here! Your Bonsai will most definitely thank you!
I'm extremely pleased with this product I've only used one of the 3 sample packet's and there on the seventh set of leaves and the plants are only a month old
