Product Information

Full details

Empathy After Plant Citrus Biofertiliser is a premium, biologically active nutrient solution specifically engineered for both container-grown and garden citrus trees. It serves as an essential supplement for gardeners looking to maximize fruit yield and tree vitality by combining traditional plant nutrients with living mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial bacteria. While it provides comprehensive support for growth and drought resistance, users should note that for optimal establishment, it is intended to be used as part of a long-term care routine rather than a single-application miracle cure.

FAQs

How often should I apply this to my citrus trees?

For best results, apply the biofertiliser monthly throughout the active growing season, with extra attention during the summer months.

Can I use this on other fruit trees?

While specifically formulated for citrus, the biological components are generally beneficial for many plants; however, it is optimized for the nutrient needs of citrus species.

Does it need to be mixed into the soil?

For pots, you can sprinkle it on the surface and water it in. For ground-planted trees, gently raking it into the top inch of soil before watering is recommended.

Is this safe to use on indoor citrus trees?

Yes, it is perfectly safe for indoor citrus, though you should ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent the soil from becoming stagnant.

Should I stop using this in winter?

Yes, citrus trees go dormant or slow their growth in winter. Withhold feeding until the tree starts producing new leaves in the spring.

Troubleshooting

Visible white mold on the soil surface after application

This is often the beneficial mycorrhizal fungi activating. It is harmless and a sign the product is working; you can gently stir it into the top layer of soil.

No noticeable growth improvement

Ensure the plant is receiving adequate sunlight and that the soil is kept consistently moist but not waterlogged, as the living components require water to survive.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports stronger overall tree growth
  • Encourages prolonged and consistent fruiting
  • Improves drought resilience in potted plants
  • Adds beneficial microbes to sterile potting soils
  • Easy to incorporate into a monthly maintenance schedule

Cons

  • Best results require consistent monthly application
  • Requires proper soil moisture to keep the microorganisms active
  • Most effective when used from the initial planting stage
  • Not an instant remedy for trees suffering from major nutrient deficiencies or disease

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, incorporate the biofertiliser into your routine during the primary growing season from early spring through late summer. For newly planted trees, ensure you use this product in conjunction with `rootgrow` at the time of planting to give the tree the best head start. When applying to existing containers, scatter the granules evenly across the surface of the soil and water in thoroughly to ensure the microbes reach the rhizosphere. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the viability of the living microorganisms contained within the product. Avoid using high-strength chemical fungicides in the immediate area, as these can interfere with the beneficial fungal network you are trying to cultivate.
