Searles 5 in 1® Plus is a brilliant organic plant food containing Cow, Fowl and Sheep Manures, Mushroom Compost, Zeolite, Blood and Bone, hoof and horn plus added Trace Elements and Minerals. Mix one part Searles 5 in 1® Plus to three parts existing soil to enrich the soil and provide long term organic nutrients to plants. Flowers and vegetables respond extremely well to this product.

Because Searles 5 in 1® Plus is in an organic form, when organic fertilisers are subsequently applied, the existing humus and organic material store the new nutrients resulting in a ‘slow release’ effect. Chemical fertilisers have a tendency to leach away very quickly.

A “fusion fertiliser” covering all bases — physical, chemical and biological. A fertiliser, soil conditioner and microbial inoculum all-in-one.

NTS have developed a complete fertiliser covering every aspect of plant and soil nutrition. Nutri-Store Gold™ is the bridge between conventional agriculture and organics, literally containing the best of both worlds. This new generation fertiliser epitomises the Nutri-Tech approach toward high yield, sustainable agriculture. Fusion farming is the key to maximum production, crop quality and real fertilisers, which build soil fertility while feeding both the soil and the plant.

Benefits

• A total fertiliser involving over 20 components.
• A “living fertiliser”, where organic acids and micro-organisms have complexed the component minerals and nutrients.
• Organic carbon and minerals build crop quality.
• The largest selling NTS home garden fertiliser.
• The perfect ‘complete’ option in the absence of a soil test.

Refer to table for NPK ‘Nutri-Store Gold’.

Eco-Cweed contains a range of naturally occurring plant hormones which stimulate certain responses within plants, such as root and shoot growth. It also contains 16% potassium which enhances flowing and the size of fruit.

Eco-Cweed contains anti-oxidants which strengthen cell walls , prevent water loss and delay the breakdown of plant tissues. This results in a longer shelf life for fruit, vegetable and flowers and helps plants cope with extremes in environmental conditions such as drought and frost, Eco-Cweed reduces transplant shock. Sustainably harvested.

Acadian SSE is a pure extract of fresh Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed which is a storehouse of over 60 naturally occurring major and minor nutrients and amino acids. These active ingredients include such trace minerals as boron, molybdenum, copper, iron, zinc, manganese, silicon, and cobalt, which are chelated in a natural form.

Acadian SSE also contains low concentrations of naturally occurring growth promoting substances such as Cytokinins, Auxins and Gibberellins.

Used frequently during the growing period, Acadian SSE will enhance plant root and stem development, as well as colour and general vigour.

Fossilised seabird droppings offer a combination of soluble and slow-release phosphate in combination with dense mineralisation.

NTS Guano Granules™ contain phosphorus, which will not lock up and become insoluble. They also contain calcium and good trace element levels, including zinc. NTS Guano Granules™ are an excellent option for inclusion in planting blends as a proportion of the phosphate component is citrate-soluble.

Reactive rock phosphate can take two years to release its phosphorus load, and in alkaline soils it will never become plant-available. NTS Guano Granules™, by contrast, combines rapid-release characteristics with a controlled release pattern, to ensure adequate phosphate supply throughout the season.

Benefits

• Biological farmers of Australia (BFA) Registered Product — Allowed Input 456AI.
• Combines rapid-release characteristics with a controlled release pattern, to ensure adequate phosphate supply throughout the season.
• Ideal for use as a granulated starter P.
• Contains a percentage of citrate-soluble phosphate and can be used as a highly effective starter phosphate.
• Unlike chemically treated commercial phosphates, which contain problem levels of the heavy metal cadmium, NTS Guano Granules™ are virtually cadmium-free.
• Ideal for organic growers seeking a soluble phosphate kick-start.

Phosphatic fertilizer and soil conditioner with micro-biological life.

• Available Phosphorus — Not Tied Up

Full season phosphate supply without the lockups. NTS Soft Rock™ has virtually no cadmium, is a bio-friendly, colloidal clay-based rock phosphate.

A colloidal calcium phosphate that can never lock up, in stark contrast to all other phosphate sources. This exceptional fertiliser includes phosphorus, calcium, silicon and a rich lode of trace elements. A microbe friendly bio-phosphate, which is an integral part of our soil regeneration program. This is one of the few phosphate sources that do not have problems with the heavy metal cadmium and it becomes plant-available in a fraction of the time involved with reactive rock phosphate. A much cheaper option than DAP/MAP per unit of P.

Benefits

• BFA certified version available (one tonne minimum buy).
• All elements are in colloidal form. This provides ongoing plant-availability and ensures that none of the component elements can ever become locked up.
• One of the lowest cadmium levels of any phosphate product in the world with less than 1 ppm. All phosphate sources include the heavy metal cadmium in varying levels. This is proving a major environmental problem, with consumers becoming more aware of the problem and demanding cadmium-free produce.
• Exceptional trace element levels.
• Helps remineralise soils.
• Colloidal minerals provide health benefits to soil microbes.
• Colloidal calcium componenet (24% approx) is much more plant available than limestone.
• High in silicon. Research suggests increased brix levels in plants are related to the presence of silica.

A microbe-rich, high-carbon, composted fertiliser addressing the carbon depletion too common in contemporary agriculture.

Nutri-Store 180® involves bituminous coal being converted into organic carbon, the element most lacking in conventional agriculture. The new generation fertiliser also includes colloidal phosphate, fish protein, cow manure and a secret vitamin and mineral formula.

An amino acid based biostimulant or “vitamin pill” for plants and the soil.

Aminogro is produced through a proprietary industrial digestion process of crustacean shells and other marine wastes from the Australian seafood industry. The final liquefied “broth” is fortified with trace minerals and Vitamin C to produce a naturally complex plant and soil food containing free amino acids, polypeptides and proteins.

Nutrients are rapidly absorbed into plants in the presence of Aminogro. This significantly improves fertiliser efficiency and plant response times, particularly when the plant is under physiological or environmental stresses.

• Improves Brix, Specific Gravity and Baumé levels in plants and fruit
• Improves fruit and flower colour, uniformity and size
• Improves post harvest storage life of vegetables and fruit
• Improves the stress tolerance levels of plants
• Assists the plants natural pest and diseases resistance
• Enhances the uptake and assimilation of trace mineral to rapidly correct minor micronutrient deficiencies
• Improves soil structure, water holding capacity and CEC levels
• Supplies organic nitrogen (glutamic acid) to the plant and soil
