Alfalfa Meal
5L = Approx. 1kg
Course 5mm sifted Alfalfa/Lucerne meal
Primary benefit of this pleasant smelling meal is increasing organic matter, although it is also a valuable plant-derived fertiliser.
Has a minimum of 15% protein, which is the equivalent of 2.4% Nitrogen.
Also contains trace minerals and triaconatol (a natural growth hormone).
Excellent addition to the compost pile for nitrogen content and absorbency.
Roses respond especially well to alfalfa meal. For new plantings of roses, mix 0.5 cup per plant into the soil. For existing plants, mix 0.5-1 cup of alfalfa meal to a depth of 4″-6″ around each rose bush.
For vegetables and flower beds, work in at 250-350 grams per square meter
Soil mixes use at 1-2%

Has a minimum of 15% protein, which is the equivalent of 2.4% Nitrogen.
Also contains trace minerals and triaconatol (a natural growth hormone).
Excellent addition to the compost pile for nitrogen content and absorbency.
Roses respond especially well to alfalfa mulch.
Spread a layer about 2cm thick in spring and in the middle of summer.
Gypsum
Natural Gypsum
10L = Approx. 11kg
Gypsum or Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate (CaSO4.2H20) is Nature’s very own plant super food. It increases and maintains plant health by providing them with large amounts of soluble Calcium and Sulphur: two elements essential to plant growth. Gypsum is extracted from an open-air mine in Yzerfontein using recycled water only. Here are its features:
Soluble calcium helps overcome the dispersion effects of magnesium or sodium ions, enhancing soil aggregation and porosity to improve aeration and water infiltration
Agricultural standards require gypsum of only natural sources to be used on plants and with current purity levels of 85%; our gypsum is literally the best there is.
