Campbell Orchid Fertiliser A (500g, 3kg & 10kg Sizes)
Orchid “A” Fertiliser is a yellow crystalline water-soluble powder for use on orchids to increase plant development and growth where plant development has been retarded through lack of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium and mineral trace elements.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Use Orchid “A” at initiation of flower spike formation and through to the end of flowering. Applications should commence in January and continue through to end of August in temperate zones of Australia. Application period should be adjusted to coincide with orchid development phases in northern tropical and southern cooler climatic zones in Australia.
Periodic Feeding: Use 20g (1 measure spoon) of Orchid A per 7 Litres of water and apply as a normal watering every 7-14 days or as plant or soil tests indicate.
Constant Feeding: This is done every time the plants are watered. The dose requirements vary between 50-75 ppm nitrogen when using Orchid “A”. Best results are obtained with the use of a “Proportioner Sprayer”. The following table can be used to obtain the quantities of Fertiliser for a particular proportioner with a specific dilution ratio.
