Description
One bottle, one dilution rate, the whole soil grow
1-Component Aarde is House & Garden's single-part mineral base feed for soil, built to work with the natural buffering and microbial life that a good compost already has. It carries the full set of macronutrients and trace elements in a highly soluble form, plus humic acid, fulvic acid and chelated iron to improve uptake and keep foliage green. Because it covers both vegetative growth and flowering, there is no separate grow and bloom bottle and no switch-over week to get wrong. Available in 1 litre, 5 litre and 10 litre, it suits hand watering and drip-fed soil systems alike.
Key Benefits
- Complete one-part feed - every macro and micronutrient in a single bottle, mixed in one step.
- Formulated for soil - works with the substrate's buffering rather than fighting it.
- Growth and bloom in one - the same feed runs from first true leaves to the end of flower.
- Humic and fulvic acids - improve nutrient availability and support root zone biology.
- Chelated iron - keeps iron plant-available and heads off the yellowing that follows lockout.
- Three sizes - 1, 5 and 10 litres, from a single tent to a full room.
Why Soil Growers Get Caught Out by Two-Part Feeds
Two-part and three-part systems were designed for inert media where you control everything. Put one into living soil and the substrate's own buffering shifts the balance, so the numbers on the chart stop matching what the roots actually see. A single-part feed built for soil starts from the assumption that the medium is doing half the work, which is why it stays stable in the reservoir and predictable in the pot.
How to Use
- Shake the bottle thoroughly before measuring.
- Add to water and stir, then check EC against your plants' stage and appetite.
- Adjust pH after mixing, not before.
- Apply by hand or through a drip system to soil-grown plants.
- Add House & Garden boosters and additives to the same tank once the base feed is in.
