Orgro Concentrated Manure Fertiliser
Orgro is a concentrated 100% organic manure that improves soil health and fertility and is perfect for a host of uses around the garden.
Made from chicken manure produced from free-range chickens that have NOT been fed with growth promoters or any other additives. Before being packed, the manure is composted for a full year which reduces volume and kills pathogens and weed seeds.
Orgro is up to 6 times more concentrated than farmyard manure and a little goes a long way. It is kind to plants and will not scorch them. Each bag will treat 220 sq. yards/184 sq. metres (at lawn rate).
Orgro can only benefit your garden – apply through the growing season for bigger blooms and higher yields.
- Allows you to feed your garden naturally: it is not a factory-produced fertiliser nor is it a substitute for farmyard manure.
- Concentrated organic, 100% natural manure that provides the nutrients your plants need ALL OVER THE GARDEN!
- Can be used in confidence on lawns, vegetables, bulbs, pot plants, perennials, trees, shrubs, roses, hedges, and all types of fruit trees, fruit plants and bushes.
- Safe to use with lime-hating ericaceous plants.
- Can be used straight from the packet and it is easy to handle.
- Safe to use anywhere in the garden because it is 100% organic and therefore rich in humus. Humus is vital for healthy plant growth. It aerates and improves the structure of your soil.
- Works for you in two ways: the immediate benefit for your plants and the long-lasting effect of soil enrichment.
- 100% organic manure, thoroughly and naturally composted and then shredded to produce a well-textured manure that’s easy to work with.
- Can be used to prepare the ground and as a top dressing during the growing season. The application rates are only a guide.
Application rates:
Generally apply Orgro according to the quality of your soil. Approximately 3-4 handfuls to the sq. yard/meter to lightly forked soil or raked in to the topsoil.
Flowers and Bedding Plants:
Before planting out annual and bedding plants fork in 3–6 handfuls per sq. yard/meter. Top dress perennials with 2-4 handfuls per sq. yard/meter in early spring and autumn.
Roses:
Dig in about 4 handfuls under new bushes and spread about 2-3 handfuls around each bush in early spring and again when buds are beginning to appear.
Lawns:
Spread about 3-6 handfuls per sq. yard/meter in the spring and once or twice during the growing season. Water in well during dry weather.
Vegetables:
Fork in 6-8 handfuls per sq. yard/meter before planting: brassicas, lettuces, onions, carrots, beans and other vegetables. Improve your yields by applying two or three top dressings during the growing season.
Fruit Trees and Soft Fruits:
Apply 3-4 handfuls in spring and autumn around the base of fruit trees, bushes and canes.
Compost:
Orgro is an excellent compost activator, it helps to generate heat and enriching the compost. Any left overs can be put to good use in the compost heap.
Liquid feed:
Soak the well punctured bag in the large tank (or use a polythene bag in a bucket). The resulting liquid will treat the area even larger than 184 sq. meter/220 sq. yard per bag (at lawn rate) we claim for dry use.
Please Note: Orgro is highly moisture absorbent and it means that the weight of the sack may vary by several pounds. The volume in each sack is the same – you will get the same coverage from the sack.
