Description:<\/strong>
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n


\nThe Seeding Combo is a custom-made organic mix designed to create optimum conditions for seed germination, for early root development and for the health of seedlings themselves. It combines the natural pest-repelling and antifungal properties of Neem Cake, the nutritious supply of vermiculite & Mycorrhiza (VAM) and moisture retention, and the lime supportive, microbial-rich vermicompost + Rhodophytes (Red Algae).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The combo provides your seeds with the best possible start by providing the nutrients they need, protection from soil-borne pathogens and improvement of soil structure and moisture levels. All of these things are critical for successful germination and growth of early plants.<\/span><\/p>\n

Benefits:<\/h3>\n
1. Elevated Germination Rate:<\/strong><\/div>\n
    \n
  • Peace of mind and providing a timely and uniform sprout of seedlings due to increased availability of nutrients and moisture retention.<\/li>\n
  • Vermiculite keeps the growth medium moist and therefore there will be less seed failure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    \n

    2. Stronger Roots:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • VAM (Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhiza) form a symbiotic relationship with young roots that assists with the early uptake of phosphorus and micronutrients to promote vigorous root growth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

      3. Natural Resistance to Soil Disease and Pests:<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • The Neem Cake contains Azadirachtin, a beneficial natural compound that prevents pests and limits the possibility of fungal infections, providing the healthiest seedlings possible.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • This will prevent damping off, root rot, and other fungal problems that can be a problem during early growth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        4. Healthier Soil and Increased Microbial Activity:<\/strong><\/p>\n

          \n
        • If vermicompost is used that contains Rhodophytes, then the soil becomes a living ecosystem full of bacteria, enzymes and trace elements needed to balance early plant growth implementation for best practices.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Improved aeration and water holding capacity, which are important for sensitive root systems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          5. Chemical & Hazard- free for Young Seedlings:<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          • 100% organic, no synthetic additives.<\/li>\n
          • Promoting sustainable gardening from the seed phase.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            How to Use:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

            Ideal for: vegetable seeds, flowering seeds, kitchen garden starters, seed trays, germination beds, and nursery pots<\/p>\n

            1.<\/strong> Soil\/Media Preparation for Seeding<\/strong>
            \nThe following ratio per 1kg potting\/germination\/consolidated media:
            \n50 gm Neem Cake
            \n1 tbsp Horti Rich (VAM + Vermiculite)
            \n200 gm Vermi Rich (Vermicompost with Rhodophytes)
            \nThoroughly mix all three into your potting medium\/soil.<\/span><\/p>\n

            2. For Direct Sowing in Pots or Garden Beds<\/strong>
            \nCreate shallow rows or holes for your seeds.
            \nGive each seed a small pinch of the mixed combo (Neem Cake + Horti Rich + Vermi Rich) directly under each seed before sowing.
            \nThen lightly cover the seed with soil and lightly water.<\/span><\/p>\n

            3. Watering & Maintenance<\/strong>
            \nAfter germination, add Horti Rich (1 tbsp\/gallon water) once every 10\u201315 days to your water, to strengthen roots and boost growth.
            \nTop dress every 2\u20133 weeks on a small quantity of Vermi Rich (50\u2013100 gm per plant) and a dose of Neem Cake (10\u201315 gm per plant) so they have continued microbial and pest protection support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
