Unit price perEcofective Natural Water Storing Granules 350g are biodegradable, starch-based hydrating granules designed to improve moisture retention around plant roots and reduce the need for frequent watering. Capable of storing up to 80 times their own weight in water, the granules swell to form a moisture-retaining gel within the growing medium and gradually release water where plants need it.
Particularly useful for hanging baskets, pots, tubs and containers, the granules help create a more consistent supply of moisture around the root system. This can be especially valuable during warm weather when container-grown plants can dry out quickly.
Ecofective's formula is made from a blend of natural plant materials and minerals and is biodegradable, non-toxic and odourless. The granules provide a straightforward way to improve the water-holding capacity of growing media without relying on conventional synthetic water-retaining crystals.
Why choose Ecofective Water Storing Granules?
How do water storing granules work?
Once mixed into the growing medium and watered, Ecofective Water Storing Granules absorb a large quantity of moisture and expand. The hydrated material forms a gel within the root zone, effectively creating small reserves of water throughout the compost.
As conditions around the roots become drier, moisture held within the gel becomes available within the surrounding growing medium. This helps maintain a more consistent moisture environment and can extend the period between watering.
Each gram of dry granules can store up to approximately 80 times its own weight in water, making a relatively small amount useful when preparing pots, baskets and containers.
Ideal for pots, tubs & hanging baskets
Container-grown plants are particularly vulnerable to drying because their roots are restricted to a relatively small volume of compost. Hanging baskets can be even more demanding during summer because their exposed position allows moisture to be lost rapidly.
Ecofective Natural Water Storing Granules are particularly suited to:
By increasing the amount of moisture that can be retained within the root zone, the granules can make container watering easier to manage during periods of active growth and warm weather.
How to use Ecofective Water Storing Granules
The granules are intended to be incorporated into the growing medium so that the hydrated material is distributed around the plant's root system.
When preparing a new pot, planter or hanging basket, distribute the granules through the compost in accordance with the application directions on the current product packaging. Once planted, water the growing medium thoroughly to allow the granules to begin absorbing moisture.
Allow sufficient room within containers for the growing medium and hydrated granules to expand. Do not simply place a concentrated layer of dry granules immediately beneath the plant.
Water storing granules reduce the frequency with which plants may need watering, but they do not eliminate the need to check plants regularly. Water requirements will still vary according to temperature, wind, plant size, container volume and the type of growing medium being used.
Useful for summer container planting
Summer containers can move from adequately moist to dry surprisingly quickly, particularly during hot or windy conditions. Large flowering displays also develop substantial root systems that can use available water rapidly.
Adding water-retaining granules when preparing the container increases the moisture reserve available within the compost. This can help reduce rapid drying and make the watering routine more manageable.
Good drainage should still be maintained. Water-retaining granules are intended to improve moisture availability rather than leave roots permanently saturated, so containers should continue to have suitable drainage holes.

Ecofective Water Storing Granules FAQs
How much water can Ecofective Water Storing Granules hold?
The granules can store up to 80 times their own weight in water, forming a hydrated gel within the growing medium. Do water storing granules mean I no longer need to water my plants?
No. They are designed to reduce the need for frequent watering, not eliminate watering altogether. Plants should still be checked regularly, particularly during hot or windy weather. Are these granules suitable for hanging baskets?
Yes. Hanging baskets are one of their main applications because baskets can dry rapidly during warm weather. The granules help retain additional moisture within the compost around the roots. Are Ecofective Water Storing Granules biodegradable?
Yes. Ecofective describes the granules as biodegradable and made from a blend of natural plant materials and minerals. Are they the same as synthetic water crystals?
No. Ecofective's product uses starch-based hydrating granules made from natural plant materials and minerals and is described as biodegradable. Can I use water storing granules in pots and planters?
Yes. They are particularly useful in pots, tubs, planters and other containers where a limited volume of compost can dry more quickly than open ground. Do containers still need drainage holes?
Yes. Water storing granules improve moisture retention but do not replace proper drainage. Pots and containers should still allow excess water to drain away. How many packs are supplied in an outer case?

Unit price perEcofective Disease Stoppa 1L is a pesticide-free, ready-to-use plant protection spray that creates a physical barrier over leaves and stems to help protect plants from disease spores. Suitable for edible and ornamental plants, it also contains nutrients to support healthier plant growth.
Disease Stoppa takes a physical approach to plant disease protection. When applied to the plant, the formulation creates an invisible protective barrier on foliage and stems, helping prevent disease spores from successfully affecting the treated plant.
The formula is supplied ready to use, so there is no measuring or dilution required. The 1 litre flexible pouch incorporates Ecofective's ergonomic thumb-pump trigger for straightforward one-handed application.
Why choose Ecofective Disease Stoppa?
How does Ecofective Disease Stoppa work?
Disease Stoppa works differently from a conventional pesticide or fungicide. Its physical mode of action creates an invisible barrier across the leaves and stems of the treated plant.
This protective coating helps provide a physical defence against disease spores. Because the treatment is applied to the plant surface, good and even coverage is important.
Disease Stoppa also contains plant nutrients, so the treatment combines physical disease protection with nourishment to help support healthy growth.
Preventative plant disease protection
Disease Stoppa is particularly useful as part of a preventative plant-care programme. The aim is to establish and maintain the protective barrier on susceptible foliage rather than waiting until disease pressure has become severe.
Regular inspection remains important. Check leaves, stems and new growth for early signs of plant stress or disease and maintain good growing conditions alongside treatment.
Removing badly affected or dead plant material where appropriate, maintaining suitable spacing and airflow, watering plants correctly and keeping growing areas clean can all complement a regular plant-protection routine.
For edible & ornamental plants
Ecofective specifies Disease Stoppa for use on both edible and ornamental plants, making it suitable for mixed gardens where disease protection may be required across different types of planting.
This can include suitable flowers, ornamental plants, fruit and vegetable crops where the current product instructions permit treatment.
Always follow the current instructions supplied with the product and apply according to the needs of the plants being treated.
How to use Ecofective Disease Stoppa
Disease Stoppa is supplied ready to use and does not require dilution.
Good coverage is important because Disease Stoppa works by creating a physical barrier on the plant. Always refer to the current product packaging for complete application and safety instructions before use.
Getting the best from Disease Stoppa
A physical barrier treatment depends on maintaining coverage as the plant develops. During periods of active growth, new leaves and stems are continually being produced, which is why Ecofective recommends more frequent treatment during the main growing season.
Application can then be reduced after the main growth period. This approach helps maintain protection while adapting treatment frequency to the changing rate of plant development.
If plants are producing significant amounts of fresh growth, inspect them regularly to ensure new foliage receives appropriate treatment in accordance with the manufacturer's directions.
Flexible 1L trigger pouch
Disease Stoppa is supplied in Ecofective's lightweight flexible pouch rather than a traditional rigid spray bottle. The format reduces the amount of plastic packaging required while retaining the convenience of a complete ready-to-use spray.
The integrated thumb-pump trigger is ergonomically designed for easy one-handed operation, allowing the spray to be applied directly to foliage and stems.
The pouch is also more compact than a conventional rigid bottle, reducing the volume of packaging associated with the product.

Ecofective Disease Stoppa FAQs
What is Ecofective Disease Stoppa?
Disease Stoppa is a pesticide-free, ready-to-use plant protection spray that creates a physical barrier on leaves and stems to help protect plants from disease spores. How does Disease Stoppa protect plants?
It works through a physical mode of action. The spray creates an invisible barrier across treated foliage and stems, helping protect the plant against disease spores. Can Disease Stoppa be used on vegetables and edible plants?
Yes. Ecofective specifies Disease Stoppa for use on edible as well as ornamental plants. Always follow the current instructions supplied with the product. Does Ecofective Disease Stoppa need diluting?
No. The 1L trigger pouch is supplied ready to use and should be applied directly according to Ecofective's instructions. How often should Disease Stoppa be applied?

Unit price perEcofective Organic Seaweed 1.2L is a concentrated natural seaweed plant growth stimulant designed to give flowers, fruit, vegetables and ornamental plants an additional boost. This promotional pouch contains 50% extra compared with the standard 800ml pack, providing 1.2 litres of concentrate for use across the garden.
Developed for gardeners looking to support bigger crops and blooms, Organic Seaweed can be incorporated into an existing plant nutrition programme during periods of active growth, flowering and crop development.
Rather than functioning simply as another general-purpose fertiliser, seaweed is commonly used as a plant biostimulant and tonic. This makes Organic Seaweed a useful companion to regular plant feeding, helping support vigorous, healthy plant development throughout the growing season.
Why choose Ecofective Organic Seaweed?
1.2L promotional pouch with 50% extra free
This promotional format contains 1.2 litres of Ecofective Organic Seaweed. Compared with the standard 800ml pack, that provides an additional 400ml of concentrate, equivalent to 50% extra product.
The larger format is particularly useful during spring and summer when plants are growing rapidly and seaweed treatments may form a regular part of the garden-care programme.
Because Organic Seaweed can be used across a broad range of plant types, the larger pouch is also practical for mixed gardens where flowers, fruit, vegetables and ornamental plants are all being treated.
Why use seaweed on plants?
Seaweed-based products are widely used in horticulture as plant biostimulants. Their purpose is different from simply supplying a conventional NPK fertiliser. Instead, they are incorporated into growing programmes to complement plant nutrition and support overall plant performance.
Ecofective Organic Seaweed is designed as a natural plant growth stimulant, making it useful when plants are actively establishing, producing new growth, flowering or developing crops.
It can therefore be used alongside a suitable fertiliser where plants require additional primary nutrients, rather than requiring the grower to choose between a conventional feed and a seaweed treatment.
Seaweed tonic for flowers, fruit & vegetables
Organic Seaweed is intended for broad use throughout the garden and can be incorporated into the care programme for many different plant groups.
Its broad suitability makes it a convenient option for gardeners who want to introduce seaweed into a mixed planting programme without buying separate products for different crops.
How to use Ecofective Organic Seaweed
Shake the pouch thoroughly before use. Organic Seaweed is supplied as a concentrated liquid and should be diluted with water before application.
Measure the required quantity into a watering can, add water and mix thoroughly before applying as part of the normal plant-care routine.
Application requirements can vary according to plant type, season and growing conditions. Always follow the current dilution rate, application method and frequency printed on the product packaging.
Use alongside your regular plant nutrition programme
It is useful to distinguish between a seaweed growth stimulant and a complete plant fertiliser. Plants require essential mineral nutrients including nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, together with secondary nutrients and trace elements.
Organic Seaweed is designed primarily as a growth stimulant and plant tonic. Where plants require significant additional nutrition, use it alongside an appropriate fertiliser rather than assuming that a seaweed treatment alone will meet every nutritional requirement.
This approach makes it easy to add the benefits of a seaweed-based biostimulant to an established feeding programme without unnecessarily replacing the plant food already suited to the crop.

Unit price perEcofective Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules 2L are natural, non-toxic and pesticide-free granules that create a physical barrier around plants to help deter slugs and snails. Suitable for edible and ornamental plants in beds, borders, pots and containers, the rain-resistant granules protect vulnerable plants without harming slugs and snails.
Made from naturally derived ingredients, Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules provide an alternative to conventional slug pellets. Rather than attracting and killing slugs, the granules form a protective barrier that discourages slugs and snails from reaching the plants inside.
Unlike clay-based barriers that can become soft and degrade when wet, Ecofective's granules are designed to dry quickly after rain or watering and remain effective. This makes them particularly useful for outdoor planting where changing weather conditions are unavoidable.
Why choose Ecofective Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules?
How do Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules work?
Slug Stoppa Granules work by forming a physical barrier around the plant. Slugs and snails are deterred from crossing the granules, helping prevent them from reaching and feeding on the protected plant.
The product is not designed to kill slugs or snails. Instead, it provides a physical defence around edible and non-edible plants while allowing the pests themselves to remain unharmed.
This also supports a more wildlife-conscious approach to slug management, leaving naturally occurring slugs and snails available to predators such as birds, frogs, toads and hedgehogs.
Rain-resistant slug protection
One of the key advantages of Ecofective Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules is their behaviour after getting wet.
Ecofective states that the naturally derived granules do not turn spongy when wet. Instead, they dry out quickly and remain effective after rainfall or watering.
This distinguishes them from some clay-based slug barriers that can soften and deteriorate following repeated exposure to moisture.
Where can Slug Stoppa Granules be used?
Ecofective Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules can be applied around the base of edible and ornamental plants in both garden soil and containers.
They are particularly useful around young plants and fresh growth, which can suffer substantial damage when slug and snail activity is high.
How to use Ecofective Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules
For garden plants, pots and tubs, place the granules close to the stem of the plant in a complete circle. Ecofective recommends using approximately 15-20g, or a small handful, per plant.
Apply the granules to a depth of up to 2cm, ensuring the protective circle is complete. A continuous barrier is important because gaps can provide slugs and snails with an untreated route to the plant.
When planting into an existing garden area, inspect the planting area first because slugs may already be present inside the area you intend to protect. Creating a barrier around a slug that is already beside the plant will not prevent feeding damage.
Always follow the current instructions supplied with the product.
Slug Stoppa Granules or Slug Stoppa Spray?
| Product | How it is used |
|---|---|
| Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules | Placed around plants to form a physical barrier that deters slugs and snails from reaching them. |
| Slug Stoppa Spray | Sprayed directly onto suitable plants to create an invisible deterrent on the foliage. |
Both products provide pesticide-free approaches to slug and snail protection, but they work in different locations. The granules protect the perimeter around the plant, while the spray is applied directly to suitable plant foliage.
Wildlife-conscious slug & snail control
Slugs and snails form part of the garden food chain and are eaten by wildlife including birds, frogs, toads and hedgehogs. Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules are designed to deter the pests rather than kill them.
Ecofective describes the granules as safe for use around children, pets, wildlife and bees when used as directed, making them particularly attractive to gardeners looking for a non-toxic physical approach to plant protection.

Ecofective Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules FAQs
Do Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules kill slugs and snails?
No. They create a physical barrier designed to deter slugs and snails from reaching the protected plant rather than killing them. Are Slug Stoppa Granules the same as conventional slug pellets?
No. Slug Stoppa Granules are a non-toxic, pesticide-free physical deterrent. They are placed around plants to form a barrier rather than acting as a poisonous bait. Can I use the granules around vegetables?
Yes. Ecofective specifies the granules for protecting both edible and ornamental plants. Do Slug Stoppa Granules still work after rain?
They are rain resistant. Ecofective states that the granules do not turn spongy when wet, but instead dry quickly and remain effective after rain or watering. Can I use Slug Stoppa in plant pots?
Yes. The granules can be used around plants in pots and tubs as well as around plants growing in garden beds and borders. Are the granules suitable for organic gardening?
Yes. Ecofective identifies Slug Stoppa Barrier Granules as certified for organic gardening. What is the difference between Slug Stoppa Granules and the spray?

Unit price perEcofective Bug Stoppa 1L is a pesticide-free, ready-to-use pest control spray for flowers, fruit, vegetables and ornamental plants. Working through a physical mode of action, it controls common garden pests including greenfly, blackfly, aphids, spider mites, mealybugs, scale insects and psyllids while also helping to control powdery mildew.
Designed for gardeners who want effective pest control without relying on conventional pesticides, Bug Stoppa uses a physical method of control. Thorough application directly onto affected plants helps control susceptible pests, while regular use can also help remove active powdery mildew spores from foliage.
The formula additionally contains plant nutrients, combining pest protection with nourishment to help support healthy flowers, fruit and vegetables.
Supplied in a convenient 1 litre ready-to-use trigger pouch, Bug Stoppa requires no mixing or dilution and can be applied directly to the upper and lower surfaces of plant leaves.
Why choose Ecofective Bug Stoppa?
What pests does Ecofective Bug Stoppa control?
Bug Stoppa is designed to control a broad range of common sap-feeding and plant-damaging pests. Ecofective specifically identifies:
Because the formulation relies on physical control, good contact and thorough coverage are important. Pest colonies frequently develop on sheltered parts of the plant, particularly the undersides of leaves, so both upper and lower leaf surfaces should be treated.
How does pesticide-free Bug Stoppa work?
Bug Stoppa uses a physical mode of action rather than relying on a conventional pesticide active ingredient. The formulation acts directly against susceptible pests when correctly applied.
Physical pest control makes thorough application particularly important. Spray coverage should reach the pests themselves rather than only treating the most visible upper surfaces of the plant.
This makes regular plant inspection useful. Check underneath leaves, around fresh shoots and other sheltered areas where small pests can establish before populations become obvious.
Also helps control powdery mildew
Bug Stoppa provides an additional benefit beyond insect and mite control. Ecofective states that regular use can help control powdery mildew by physically washing foliage and removing active mildew spores.
This combined action can be particularly useful where plants are experiencing pest pressure alongside powdery mildew, reducing the need for separate products for the listed applications.
For flowers, fruit & vegetables
Ecofective Bug Stoppa is suitable for use on edible and ornamental plants, giving it broad usefulness throughout the garden and growing area.
It can be used on suitable flowers, fruit and vegetable plants affected by the listed pests, both outdoors and under cover, in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
The formulation also provides plant nutrients, helping nourish treated plants alongside its pest-control action.
How to use Ecofective Bug Stoppa
Bug Stoppa is supplied ready to use and does not require dilution.
Always read and follow the current instructions supplied with the product before use.
Spot pest problems early
Regular inspection can make garden pest problems easier to manage. Aphids and other small pests often establish on new shoots or the undersides of leaves before damage becomes widespread.
Look for distorted new growth, sticky deposits, visible colonies, fine webbing or changes in leaf appearance. Early identification makes it easier to target affected areas thoroughly with Bug Stoppa.
Recheck treated plants regularly, particularly during periods of rapid plant growth or when conditions favour pest activity.
Flexible 1L trigger pouch
Ecofective supplies Bug Stoppa in a lightweight flexible pouch with an ergonomic thumb-pump trigger. The trigger is designed for straightforward one-handed application while the pouch reduces the amount of rigid packaging associated with a conventional spray bottle.
Ecofective states that its flexible pouch uses up to 55% less plastic than a traditional rigid bottle. The pack is also more compact and lightweight, helping reduce material use and waste.

Designed specifically for tomatoes, the concentrated feed supports healthy root development, vigorous plant growth and productive cropping. It is suitable for tomatoes grown outdoors, under glass, in containers, grow bags and other common tomato-growing systems.
The formulation combines plant nutrition with ingredients designed to support the root environment and overall plant health, making it a convenient feeding solution throughout the demanding fruiting stage.
Why choose Ecofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes?
1.2L promotional pouch with 50% extra free
This promotional pack contains 1.2 litres of Organic Superfood for Tomatoes, compared with 800ml in the standard pack. That gives you an additional 400ml of concentrated feed, equivalent to 50% extra.
Tomatoes can require regular feeding for an extended period once flowering and fruiting begin, so the larger pouch is particularly practical for gardeners growing several plants or maintaining a productive greenhouse crop.
Specialist nutrition for flowering & fruiting tomatoes
Tomato plants become increasingly demanding as they move from vegetative growth into flowering and fruit production. At this stage, the plant must maintain healthy leaves and roots while supporting developing fruit across multiple trusses.
Ecofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes is designed specifically for this stage of the crop cycle, providing a convenient source of nutrition that can be incorporated into a regular watering and feeding programme.
Consistent feeding is particularly important for container and grow bag tomatoes because the roots have access to a limited volume of growing medium. As plants develop, the nutrients originally present in the compost are gradually used, making supplementary feeding increasingly important.
Root-boosting support for healthy plants
A productive tomato crop depends on a healthy root system capable of taking up water and available nutrients efficiently. Organic Superfood for Tomatoes combines its feeding function with root-boosting support to help maintain strong plant development.
Healthy roots are especially important during fruiting, when tomato plants have substantial requirements for both water and nutrition. Maintaining consistent moisture alongside an appropriate feeding programme helps provide the stable root environment needed for continued growth and fruit development.
Suitable for greenhouse, outdoor & grow bag tomatoes
Ecofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes can be used across the most common methods of growing tomatoes, making it suitable for home gardeners with anything from a few patio plants to a larger greenhouse crop.
Feeding frequency and concentration should always be adjusted in accordance with the current manufacturer's directions for the particular growing method and crop stage.
How to use Ecofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes
Shake the pouch thoroughly before use. Dilute the concentrated feed with water according to the current application instructions printed on the product packaging.
Apply the diluted feed around the base of the tomato plant so that it reaches the active root zone. Avoid repeatedly allowing container compost or grow bags to dry excessively between watering, particularly when plants are carrying a developing fruit crop.
Tomato feeding is normally linked to flowering and fruit development rather than simply the age of the plant. Follow the current Ecofective pack directions for the correct point to begin feeding and for the appropriate frequency for greenhouse, outdoor and grow bag crops.
Getting the best from your tomato crop
Plant food works best as part of a complete tomato-growing routine. Tomatoes benefit from consistent watering, adequate light, healthy airflow and regular monitoring as flowers and fruit develop.
Pay particular attention to watering once plants are carrying fruit. Large swings between very dry and very wet compost can place unnecessary stress on the crop. Regular watering combined with an appropriate feeding programme provides a more consistent environment for root activity and fruit development.
Feeding should also be matched to plant performance. Variety, temperature, light levels, container volume and crop load can all affect how quickly an individual tomato plant grows and uses available nutrients.

Regular supplementary feeding therefore becomes particularly important for maintaining vigorous growth and colourful displays.
Ecofective Basket & Tub Feed provides a convenient concentrated feed for this purpose. The 1.5L bottle is designed for repeated use across patio containers, hanging baskets and other seasonal planting.
Why choose Ecofective Basket & Tub Feed?
Specialist feeding for baskets, tubs & containers
Hanging baskets and patio containers can produce spectacular displays, but the restricted amount of compost around their roots means plants depend heavily on regular watering and feeding.
During active growth, a densely planted basket may contain several vigorous plants all competing for the same supply of nutrients. Once flowering begins, nutritional demand can increase further as plants simultaneously maintain foliage, produce new shoots and develop flowers.
Ecofective Basket & Tub Feed is formulated specifically with this type of container planting in mind, providing supplementary nutrition that can be incorporated easily into the normal watering routine.
Where can Ecofective Basket & Tub Feed be used?
The concentrated liquid feed is ideal for a wide variety of container-grown ornamental plants, including those planted in:
It is particularly useful during the main growing and flowering season when established container plants may have exhausted much of the readily available nutrition originally supplied by their compost.
How to use Ecofective Basket & Tub Feed
Shake the bottle thoroughly before use. Basket & Tub Feed is a concentrated liquid plant food and should be diluted with water before application.
Measure the required amount into a watering can, add water and mix thoroughly. Apply the diluted solution around the compost and root zone as part of the plant's normal watering routine.
Follow the current instructions on the product packaging for the correct dilution rate and feeding frequency. Plant requirements can vary according to species, container size, growth rate, weather and stage of development.
Do not allow heavily planted baskets and containers to dry excessively between watering. Feeding is most effective when combined with a consistent watering programme and suitable drainage.
Maintaining productive summer displays
A healthy hanging basket or patio container needs more than occasional watering. As plants become established, regular deadheading, appropriate watering and continued nutrition all help maintain the display.
Removing spent flowers encourages many flowering plants to continue producing new blooms rather than directing energy towards seed production. At the same time, regular feeding helps replenish nutrients being used by vigorous plants.
Water requirements can rise dramatically during warm weather. Check baskets and containers frequently and adjust watering according to conditions rather than relying solely on a fixed schedule.

Ecofective Basket & Tub Feed FAQs
What is Ecofective Basket & Tub Feed?
It is a concentrated organic-based liquid plant feed designed specifically for plants growing in hanging baskets, tubs, pots and other containers. Why do hanging baskets need regular feeding?
Basket plants grow in a restricted volume of compost. As plants become larger and begin flowering, the nutrients originally contained in the compost are gradually used, making supplementary feeding increasingly important. Can I use Basket & Tub Feed in patio pots?
Yes. It is suitable for patio pots and other decorative containers as well as hanging baskets, tubs, window boxes and planters. Does the feed need to be diluted?
Yes. This is a concentrated liquid feed. Dilute it with water according to the current instructions on the product packaging before applying it to plants. Can it be used throughout the flowering season?
It is designed for regular container plant care and is particularly useful during periods of vigorous growth and flowering. Follow the manufacturer's current feeding schedule for application frequency. What is the Greenfingers Charity contribution?
50p from the product is donated to Greenfingers Charity, which creates therapeutic garden spaces for children and families spending time in children's hospices. How should I look after heavily planted hanging baskets?
Alongside regular feeding, check moisture levels frequently, particularly during hot or windy weather. Remove spent flowers where appropriate and make sure excess irrigation water can drain freely from the container. How many bottles are supplied per outer case?

Unit price perEcofective Organic Superfood All Plants 800g is a 6-in-1 pelleted organic plant food formulated to support healthier plants, stronger roots, brighter flowers and productive fruit and vegetable crops. With an NPK of 4.3-3.95-2.5, the slow-release feed combines essential nutrients with natural biostimulants, magnesium and organic matter for long-lasting plant support.
Designed as a versatile feed for virtually every part of the garden, Organic Superfood can be used when potting seedlings, filling containers, transplanting flowers, fruit and vegetables, feeding established pots or nourishing plants growing directly in beds and borders.
Unlike a straightforward NPK fertiliser, the formulation combines plant nutrition with ingredients designed to support the wider growing environment. Ecofective highlights improved root development, better water retention and increased resilience during stressful conditions such as heat, drought and overwatering.
Why choose Ecofective Organic Superfood?
6-in-1 nutrition for healthier plants
Ecofective Organic Superfood is designed to do more than simply provide basic plant nutrition. Its 6-in-1 approach combines slow-release feeding with biostimulants and organic matter to support several aspects of plant performance.
The manufacturer highlights benefits including stronger root development, improved moisture retention, support during environmental stress and the production of healthier plants, fruit and flowers.
This makes the pellets particularly useful as an all-round garden feed where one product is required across multiple plant types rather than maintaining separate fertilisers for every planting area.
Balanced NPK 4.3-3.95-2.5 plant nutrition
Organic Superfood All Plants has an NPK analysis of 4.3-3.95-2.5, providing the three primary macronutrients required for healthy plant growth.
The formulation also contains magnesium, natural biostimulants and organic matter, creating a broader nutritional package than NPK alone.
One organic feed for flowers, fruit & vegetables
Organic Superfood is designed as a genuine all-purpose garden feed and can be incorporated into a wide range of planting and maintenance routines.
The pellet format makes the product easy to distribute through compost or soil when planting, or to work gently into the surface around established plants before watering.
How to use Ecofective Organic Superfood
Potting up seedlings
Mix 2 tablespoons (30ml) into every 3 litres of potting compost, then water lightly.
Potting into plant pots & containers
Mix 2 tablespoons (30ml) into every 3 litres of soil or compost. Mix thoroughly, add the plant and water gently. After four weeks, add a further 1/2 tablespoon to the top layer and water in.
Transplanting flowers, shrubs & trees
Sprinkle the pellets into the planting hole before transplanting, then water the plant in:
Established pots & containers
For an established 1 litre pot, add 1/2 tablespoon (7.5ml) to the top layer of soil or compost, gently work it in and water. Repeat after four weeks. For larger pots, increase the quantity by 7.5ml for each additional litre of pot volume.
Always refer to the current product packaging before application, particularly when feeding sensitive plants or changing pot and container sizes.
Supports roots, moisture management & plant resilience
Strong plant performance starts below the surface. Ecofective specifically formulates Organic Superfood to help improve root development, giving plants a stronger foundation from which to establish and grow.
The formulation also helps improve water retention within the growing medium. This can support more consistent moisture availability around the root zone, particularly useful for container plants where compost can dry more quickly than open ground.
Ecofective also identifies increased plant support during stressful growing conditions including heat, drought and overwatering. Good watering and plant-care practices remain important, but the feed is designed to support plants when growing conditions become less favourable.
Organic nutrition with a more sustainable approach
Ecofective Organic Superfood is manufactured using a process designed to reduce its carbon footprint and avoid harmful gas emissions including methane and ammonium.
The result is a slow-release organic plant food intended to combine effective garden nutrition with Ecofective's wider focus on environmentally considerate garden care.

Unit price perEcofective Slug Stoppa 1L is a ready-to-use barrier spray designed to help protect plants from slug and snail damage without killing them. Applied around vulnerable plants, pots and growing areas, Slug Stoppa creates a physical barrier that slugs and snails are reluctant to cross, providing a practical alternative to conventional slug pellets.
Slugs and snails can cause significant damage to young plants, seedlings, vegetables and ornamental plants, particularly during mild and damp conditions. Slug Stoppa takes a different approach to traditional slug control by helping to discourage these pests from reaching vulnerable plants rather than acting as a poison or conventional pesticide.
Supplied in a convenient 1 litre ready-to-use trigger pouch, there is no mixing or dilution required. Simply apply the product as a barrier around the area you want to protect, following the current instructions supplied with the pack.
Why choose Ecofective Slug Stoppa?
How does Ecofective Slug Stoppa work?
Slug Stoppa works by creating a physical barrier around the plants or areas being protected. Rather than poisoning slugs and snails, the treated barrier is designed to discourage them from crossing it.
This makes it particularly useful where the objective is to protect plants from feeding damage without using a product designed to kill the slug or snail.
Because the product relies on maintaining a barrier, correct placement and coverage are important. The barrier should surround the area requiring protection so that slugs and snails cannot simply bypass the treated section.
Protect vulnerable plants from slug & snail damage
Slugs and snails are particularly troublesome around soft, fresh plant growth. Seedlings and recently planted crops can suffer significant damage in a short period when pest pressure is high.
Slug Stoppa can be incorporated into routine garden protection around susceptible plants and growing areas. Potential applications include:
Always use the product in accordance with the current manufacturer's instructions and only on or around areas identified as suitable on the pack.
How to use Slug Stoppa barrier spray
Ecofective Slug Stoppa is supplied ready to use, so no dilution is required.
Apply the product to create a continuous barrier around the plant, container or growing area requiring protection. Pay attention to gaps that could allow slugs or snails to enter the protected area without crossing the treated barrier.
Environmental conditions can affect outdoor barrier treatments. Inspect treated areas regularly and reapply when required in accordance with the current product instructions, particularly where weather or watering may have affected the barrier.
A useful part of integrated slug management
Slug Stoppa can form part of a broader approach to reducing slug and snail damage rather than relying on a single control method.
Garden hygiene, removing unnecessary hiding places, checking underneath pots and containers, protecting particularly vulnerable young plants and regularly inspecting crops can all help identify slug activity before serious damage occurs.
A barrier treatment can then be positioned around areas where additional protection is needed.
Ready-to-use 1L trigger pouch
The ready-to-use format makes Slug Stoppa straightforward to incorporate into routine garden maintenance. There is no concentrate to measure and no separate sprayer is required.
The trigger allows the product to be applied directly where the barrier is needed, helping users concentrate treatment around vulnerable plants and growing areas rather than treating unnecessarily large areas.

Ecofective Slug Stoppa FAQs
What is Ecofective Slug Stoppa?
Slug Stoppa is a ready-to-use barrier spray designed to help protect plants from feeding damage caused by slugs and snails. Does Slug Stoppa kill slugs and snails?
No. Slug Stoppa is designed to create a barrier that discourages slugs and snails from crossing into the protected area rather than killing them. Is Slug Stoppa an alternative to slug pellets?
It offers a different approach to traditional slug pellets by using a deterrent barrier rather than a product designed to poison or kill slugs and snails. Does Ecofective Slug Stoppa need diluting?
No. The 1L trigger pouch is supplied ready to use and should be applied according to the current instructions provided with the product. Where should Slug Stoppa be applied?
The product is used to create a protective barrier around suitable plants, pots or growing areas. The barrier should be continuous so pests cannot simply move around an untreated gap. Do I need to reapply Slug Stoppa after rain?
Outdoor conditions can affect physical barrier treatments. Inspect the treated area after significant rain or watering and follow the current pack instructions regarding reapplication. When are plants most vulnerable to slug and snail damage?
Young plants, seedlings and fresh soft growth can be particularly vulnerable. Regular inspection is useful during mild, damp periods when slug and snail activity can increase. How many Ecofective Slug Stoppa 1L pouches are supplied per case?
The 1L ready-to-use trigger pouch is supplied in an outer case quantity of 6.

Unit price perEcofective Organic Superfood for Peat-Free Compost 800g is a concentrated 6-in-1 plant food and compost booster developed specifically to improve the performance of peat-free growing media. Combining plant nutrients with biostimulants, it helps replenish compost, support stronger plant growth and get more from peat-free pots and containers throughout the growing season.
Peat-free compost is now widely used for container growing, but plants can gradually use up the nutrients available within the growing medium. Ecofective Organic Superfood provides a simple way to supplement tired or depleted compost rather than automatically replacing it.
The powdered formulation is designed to be mixed into peat-free compost, delivering a combination of plant nutrition and biostimulant ingredients to support healthy growth. It can be used when planting into fresh peat-free compost or to reinvigorate compost that has already been used.
Why choose Ecofective Organic Superfood?
Designed specifically for peat-free compost
Peat-free composts use alternative materials to provide the structure, moisture management and root environment required by plants. As with any container growing medium, however, the nutrients initially available within the compost are gradually consumed by the plant or lost through repeated watering.
Ecofective Organic Superfood has been developed specifically with peat-free compost performance in mind. Rather than treating the compost simply as something to discard once its initial nutrient charge has been used, the booster allows additional nutrition and biostimulants to be incorporated into the growing medium.
This makes it particularly useful for gardeners moving towards peat-free growing while still wanting vigorous, healthy plants and productive containers.
6-in-1 compost booster
Organic Superfood combines multiple functions in one powdered treatment. Its 6-in-1 approach is designed to provide more than a straightforward feed, supporting both the plant and the growing medium in which it is growing.
The formulation combines nutrients with biostimulants, helping provide the resources plants need for healthy growth while supporting the performance of peat-free compost.
For container gardeners, this provides a convenient way to supplement peat-free compost without needing several separate additives.
Give peat-free compost another life
One of the most useful applications for Organic Superfood is the revitalisation of previously used peat-free compost.
Compost does not necessarily become physically unusable simply because a previous crop has consumed much of its available nutrition. Where the compost remains in suitable condition, adding fresh nutrients and organic inputs can help prepare it for further growing.
Remove old roots and unwanted plant material, check that the compost remains in good physical condition, then incorporate Organic Superfood according to the current pack directions.
Compost previously used for diseased plants should not automatically be reused for new planting. Good hygiene and an assessment of the condition of the growing medium remain important.
Ideal for pots, containers & peat-free growing
Ecofective Organic Superfood is particularly useful wherever plants are being grown in peat-free compost and additional nutrition is required.
Its powdered format allows the product to be mixed through the compost rather than simply remaining concentrated on the surface.
How to use Organic Superfood for Peat-Free Compost
Ecofective Organic Superfood is designed to be incorporated into peat-free compost. Distribute the powder evenly through the growing medium according to the current application instructions supplied with the pack.
When refreshing previously used compost, remove old roots and plant debris first. Break up compacted material and check the condition of the compost before incorporating the booster thoroughly.
After planting, water appropriately for the crop and container. Peat-free compost can behave differently from traditional peat-based media, so assess moisture within the root zone rather than relying solely on the appearance of the compost surface.
Always follow the current manufacturer's application rate on the packaging rather than exceeding the recommended quantity.
Supporting more sustainable peat-free growing
Moving away from peat is only one part of reducing the environmental impact associated with container gardening. Making effective use of growing media for as long as practical can also help reduce unnecessary waste.
Organic Superfood has been developed to help gardeners get more from peat-free compost by replenishing nutrients and supporting continued plant growth. Where compost remains healthy and structurally suitable, refreshing it can reduce the need to discard and replace the entire growing medium.

What is Ecofective Organic Superfood for Peat-Free Compost?
It is a concentrated 6-in-1 powdered plant food and compost booster developed specifically to improve and replenish peat-free growing media. Can I use Organic Superfood to refresh old peat-free compost?
Yes. One of its key uses is revitalising suitable previously used peat-free compost by adding fresh nutrition and biostimulants. Remove old roots and debris and only reuse compost that remains in good condition. Does Ecofective Organic Superfood contain biostimulants?
Yes. The 6-in-1 formulation includes biostimulants alongside plant nutrition to support healthy plant development and peat-free compost performance. Can it be used when planting into new peat-free compost?
It can be used to boost peat-free compost as well as to replenish suitable previously used growing media. Follow the current application directions supplied with the product. Is it suitable for pots and containers?
Yes. Organic Superfood is particularly useful for plants grown in peat-free compost in pots, containers, planters and hanging baskets. Can all old compost be reused?
No. Check the condition of previously used compost before reusing it. Growing media associated with significant plant disease or other problems may be unsuitable for immediate reuse, and heavily degraded compost may need replacing or blending with fresh material. Why does peat-free compost need additional feeding?
Plants gradually consume the nutrients available in container compost, while repeated watering can also reduce nutrient reserves. Supplementary feeding helps maintain nutrition as plants continue to grow. How many 800g pouches are supplied in an outer case?
Ecofective Organic Superfood for Peat-Free Compost 800g is supplied in an outer case quantity of 6.

Unit price perEcofective Rose Defender 1L is a pesticide-free, ready-to-use spray providing physical control of common rose pests including aphids, whitefly and red spider mite while also helping to control powdery mildew by washing spores from the foliage. The formula also contains nutrients to support healthy, vibrant roses.
Rather than relying on a conventional pesticide, Rose Defender works through a physical mode of action. Its surfactant-based formulation acts directly on pests, making it a useful option for gardeners looking to reduce their reliance on conventional pesticide chemistry.
Rose Defender is supplied ready to use in Ecofective's flexible 1 litre trigger pouch, so there is no measuring, mixing or dilution required. The pouch uses up to 55% less plastic than a traditional rigid bottle and incorporates an ergonomic thumb-pump trigger for straightforward one-handed spraying.
Why choose Ecofective Rose Defender?
What does Rose Defender control?
Ecofective Rose Defender provides physical control of several common plant pests. The manufacturer's current information specifically identifies:
Because the product acts physically, thorough spray coverage is important. Pay particular attention to areas where pests are present, including the undersides of leaves.
Rose pest control & powdery mildew care in one spray
Rose Defender is more than an insect-control spray. With regular use, it can also help manage powdery mildew by physically washing active mildew spores from the foliage.
This makes it particularly useful for roses affected by both sap-feeding pests and powdery mildew, providing a straightforward addition to regular plant-care routines without requiring separate pesticide and mildew treatments for the listed applications.
How does pesticide-free Rose Defender work?
Rose Defender contains a blend of surfactants and works through a physical mode of action. The formulation acts directly on susceptible pests, restricting their movement and ability to feed.
This physical approach distinguishes Rose Defender from conventional pesticide products and makes thorough contact with the target pest important for effective treatment.
The formulation simultaneously helps remove active powdery mildew spores from plant surfaces while supplying foliar nutrients to the plant.
How to use Ecofective Rose Defender
Rose Defender is supplied ready to use and should not be diluted.
Good coverage is particularly important with a physical-control product because the spray needs to reach the pests being targeted.
Is Rose Defender only for roses?
Despite its name, Ecofective's formulation is not restricted solely to roses. Manufacturer information also identifies it for use on other flowers, shrubs and vegetables.
This makes the product useful where similar susceptible pests occur elsewhere in the garden, while its added nutrients provide foliar nourishment to support healthy plant growth.
Always follow the current pack instructions for the plants being treated.
Flexible pouch with up to 55% less plastic
Ecofective has moved Rose Defender into a flexible trigger pouch designed to reduce packaging material. According to Ecofective, the pouch uses up to 55% less plastic than a traditional rigid bottle.
The pouch is also more compact and lightweight than a conventional rigid container, helping reduce the amount of material required for each 1 litre ready-to-use pack.
An ergonomic thumb-pump trigger provides one-handed application directly from the pouch.

Simply remove the trigger from your previous Slug Stoppa pouch and attach it to the replacement pack for the same ready-to-use, pesticide-free protection against slug and snail damage.
Slug Stoppa works by a physical mode of action, creating an invisible barrier on plants that discourages slugs and snails without harming them. Unlike conventional slug-control products designed to kill the pest, Slug Stoppa helps protect vulnerable plants while leaving slugs, snails and their natural predators unharmed.
The formulation can be used on edible and ornamental plants and also contains nutrients to enhance and promote healthy plant growth. It is ready to use with no dilution or mixing required.
Please note: this is the 1L replacement pouch and does not include a trigger. It is designed for customers who already have a reusable trigger from a previous Ecofective Slug Stoppa spray pouch.
Why choose the Slug Stoppa Replacement Pouch?
Reuse your original Slug Stoppa trigger
The key difference between this product and the standard Ecofective Slug Stoppa 1L Spray Pouch is the trigger.
The replacement pouch does not come with a new spray trigger. Instead, Ecofective has designed it so the trigger from your previous Slug Stoppa can be removed and attached directly to the new 1L pouch.
This gives customers a simple way to continue using Slug Stoppa while keeping a perfectly serviceable trigger in use rather than disposing of it with every finished pack.
How does Ecofective Slug Stoppa work?
Slug Stoppa is a pesticide-free spray that uses a physical mode of action. When sprayed onto the plant, the formulation creates an invisible barrier that helps deter slugs and snails from feeding on the treated foliage.
It is designed to protect the plant without harming the slug or snail. This also means natural garden predators such as hedgehogs, amphibians and birds are not feeding on slugs that have consumed conventional slug-control pesticide from the treatment.
The formula also contains nutrients to help enhance and promote plant growth, combining plant protection and nourishment in one ready-to-use treatment.
For edible & ornamental plants
Ecofective Slug Stoppa is suitable for use on both edible and ornamental plants, making the replacement pouch useful across a wide range of garden applications.
Slugs and snails are particularly damaging to young, soft growth and can rapidly damage seedlings and newly established plants. Regular inspection is worthwhile during periods of increased slug activity so treatment can begin while plants remain vulnerable.
Always follow the current manufacturer's instructions when applying the product to edible or ornamental plants.
How to use the Slug Stoppa Replacement Pouch
No dilution is required. The formulation inside the replacement pouch is supplied ready to use.
Less plastic, less waste
Ecofective's flexible pouch format is designed to reduce the amount of packaging required compared with a conventional rigid spray bottle. Ecofective states that its pouch format uses up to 55% less plastic than a traditional rigid bottle.
The replacement version takes this concept a step further by allowing the existing Slug Stoppa trigger to be reused. Instead of receiving and eventually disposing of another trigger mechanism with each purchase, customers can transfer the original trigger onto the new pouch.
The flexible pouch is also more compact and lightweight than a conventional rigid bottle, helping reduce the amount of material associated with the product.

Ecofective produces Organic Superfood using nutrient-rich digestate originating from a UK farm. The formulation is enhanced with organic seaweed and natural humic acids, creating a liquid feed designed to support both plant and soil health.
Why choose Ecofective Organic Superfood?
Seaweed, natural humic acids & plant nutrition
Organic Superfood is more than a basic liquid fertiliser. Its nutrient base originates as a byproduct of anaerobic digestion, where organic material is broken down by microorganisms to produce biogas and nutrient-rich digestate.
Ecofective uses this digestate as the nutritional foundation of Organic Superfood before enhancing the formulation with organic seaweed and natural humic acids. Humic substances are naturally associated with organic materials such as traditional farm manure and are included to support plant and soil health.
The resulting concentrated feed provides a straightforward way to supply plants with nutrition while also supporting the root environment and overall plant development.
Supports root development & plant resilience
Healthy root development is essential for efficient uptake of both water and nutrients. Ecofective specifically identifies improved root development as one of the benefits of Organic Superfood, making it useful for newly established plants as well as ongoing feeding.
The formulation is also designed to support plants during periods of environmental stress, including heat, drought and overwatering. This does not replace correct watering and plant care, but provides nutritional support that can help plants maintain healthy growth when conditions become challenging.
Improved water retention is another key feature, helping support a more consistent root-zone environment for plants grown in soil and compost.
One liquid feed for plants, fruit & vegetables
Organic Superfood All Plants is designed as a versatile general-purpose feed rather than a fertiliser restricted to one particular crop.
Its broad suitability makes it a convenient option for gardeners who want one regular liquid feed for mixed planting rather than several different general-purpose fertilisers.
How to use Ecofective Organic Superfood All Plants
Shake the container before opening. Add 25ml of Organic Superfood to 4.5 litres of water in a watering can fitted with a fine rose and mix thoroughly.
Apply the diluted feed to the base of plants while the growing medium is already moist, ensuring the root area is thoroughly watered. The same dilution can also be applied using a suitable sprayer.
Ecofective recommends feeding every 10 days for plants grown indoors, outdoors or under glass.
Apply out of direct sunlight, preferably during the early morning or late evening, and avoid applying the feed directly to foliage.
At the standard 25ml per 4.5L dilution rate, an 800ml container provides approximately 32 measured doses, although Ecofective's published product information describes the 800ml format as making up to approximately 26 watering cans. Always follow the current directions printed on the product supplied.
Plant nutrition with a more sustainable approach
The nutrient-rich digestate used to produce Organic Superfood originates as a byproduct of anaerobic digestion on a UK farm. This process breaks down organic matter without oxygen, producing biogas alongside digestate that can be used as a natural fertiliser.
Ecofective developed the Organic Superfood range as an alternative that makes productive use of this nutrient-rich material while reducing reliance on purely synthetic fertiliser inputs.
This combination of plant nutrition, organic seaweed, natural humic acids and a more circular source of fertiliser makes Organic Superfood particularly relevant for gardeners looking to combine productive growing with more environmentally considered garden care.

Why choose Ecofective Organic Superfood?
1.2L promotional pack with 50% extra free
This special-value pack contains 1.2 litres of Organic Superfood, giving 50% more product than the regular 800ml pack.
The larger format is particularly useful during the main growing season when containers, flowering plants and productive crops require regular feeding. It provides the same convenient all-purpose approach while reducing how frequently another pack needs to be purchased.
For gardeners with a mixture of flowers, fruit and vegetables, the ability to use one general-purpose liquid feed across numerous plant types also helps simplify the feeding routine.
Liquid plant feed with root-boosting support
Healthy roots play an essential role in the uptake of water and nutrients. Ecofective Organic Superfood is designed not only to feed visible plant growth but also to support the root system below the surface.
This makes it useful for both established plants and plants that are actively developing through the growing season. Maintaining good root health helps plants make effective use of the water and nutrition available within their soil or compost.
Correct watering, suitable growing conditions and appropriate feeding should always work together. Organic Superfood provides the nutritional part of that routine in a convenient concentrated liquid format.
One feed for flowers, fruit & vegetables
Organic Superfood All Plants is intended as a broad all-purpose feed, making it particularly convenient for gardens containing many different plant types.
Its general-purpose formulation is especially useful where several different crops and ornamentals need feeding at the same time.
How to use Ecofective Organic Superfood All Plants
Shake the pack thoroughly before use. Measure the required amount of concentrated Organic Superfood into a watering can and dilute with water according to the current directions printed on the product packaging.
Apply the diluted feed around the base of the plant so that it reaches the active root zone. For best results, avoid allowing container compost to become excessively dry before feeding and maintain a regular watering routine appropriate for the plant and growing conditions.
Feeding requirements vary according to plant type, growth rate, season, container size and environmental conditions. Always follow the current manufacturer's application rate and feeding frequency shown on the pack.
Ideal for pots & container growing
Plants grown in containers have access to a limited volume of compost, so the nutrients initially present in the growing medium are gradually depleted as the plant develops.
Regular liquid feeding provides a practical way to replenish available nutrition without repotting the plant. Organic Superfood can therefore form part of the routine care programme for flowering containers, productive patio crops and other actively growing potted plants.
Always adjust watering to suit the weather and the individual crop. Containers can dry quickly during warm conditions, while overwatering can reduce the amount of oxygen available around the roots.

Unit price perEcofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes 800ml is a concentrated organic tomato feed with added seaweed and root-boosting support, developed for happier, healthier and tastier tomatoes. The specialist liquid feed promotes greener, healthier plants, supports improved root development and is formulated to help increase crop yield.
Designed specifically around the demands of tomato plants, Organic Superfood provides regular nutrition from flowering through fruit development. It can be used with greenhouse-grown and outdoor tomatoes as well as plants grown in grow bags or ring culture.
The formulation is based on nutrient-rich digestate originating from a UK farm and is enhanced with organic seaweed and natural humic acids. This combination provides plant nutrition while supporting healthy roots, plant resilience and the wider root environment.
Why choose Ecofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes?
Organic tomato nutrition with seaweed & humic acids
Ecofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes starts with nutrient-rich digestate originating from a UK farm. Digestate is produced as a byproduct of anaerobic digestion, where microorganisms break down organic matter without oxygen to produce biogas and a nutrient-containing material suitable for use as a natural fertiliser.
Ecofective enhances this nutritional base with organic seaweed and natural humic acids. The resulting concentrate is designed to provide tomato plants with effective nutrition while also supporting root development and plant health.
This is particularly useful for tomatoes because their nutritional demands increase significantly once flowering and fruit production begin.
Suitable for greenhouse, outdoor & grow bag tomatoes
Organic Superfood for Tomatoes can be incorporated into several common tomato-growing systems, with Ecofective providing different feeding schedules according to how and where the crop is grown.
The concentrated format means the feed strength and frequency can be adjusted according to the manufacturer's directions for the particular growing system.
How to use Ecofective Organic Superfood for Tomatoes
Shake well before use. For the standard dilution, add 25ml to 4.5 litres of water in a watering can fitted with a fine rose. Mix thoroughly and apply around the base of plants while the growing medium is already moist, ensuring the root area is thoroughly watered.
A 4.5 litre watering can of diluted feed will treat up to 9 tomato plants. The same dilution can also be applied using a suitable sprayer.
Greenhouse-grown tomatoes
Once the first truss has set and is flowering, apply the standard feed every 7 days and continue until the end of fruiting.
Outdoor-grown tomatoes
Begin feeding when the second truss has set, then apply every 10 days.
Grow bags & ring culture
Ecofective recommends using the feed at double strength every 7 days for tomatoes grown in grow bags or ring culture.
For higher-yield feeding
For greenhouse plants, grow bags and ring culture, Ecofective advises using the product at double strength every 3-4 days where a higher-yield feeding programme is required. For outdoor-grown tomatoes, the manufacturer's higher-yield programme uses double strength every 5-7 days.
Apply out of direct sunlight, preferably during the early morning or late evening, and avoid applying directly to the foliage. Always check the current pack directions before use.
Why tomato feeding starts after fruit trusses develop
Tomatoes have different nutritional requirements as they progress from early vegetative growth into flowering and fruit production. Once fruit trusses begin to set, the plant must support continued foliage and root growth while simultaneously developing an increasing crop of tomatoes.
Ecofective therefore bases its feeding schedule around truss development rather than a fixed number of weeks. This makes the instructions more relevant to the actual growth stage of the plant and allows for differences caused by variety, temperature and growing conditions.
Supports tomatoes during demanding growing conditions
Tomato plants can be particularly responsive to changes in temperature and moisture. Ecofective formulates Organic Superfood to support plants during stressful conditions including heat, drought and overwatering.
The feed is also designed to strengthen the plant and help it resist disease attack. Good ventilation, correct watering, suitable temperatures and regular crop inspection remain important parts of tomato cultivation, with nutrition forming one part of an effective overall growing programme.

Unit price perEcofective Organic Seaweed 800ml is a concentrated, 100% cold pressed seaweed plant growth stimulant designed to give all plant types an extra tonic boost. Suitable for use across flowers, fruit, vegetables and ornamental plants, it provides a simple way to support vigorous growth, bigger crops and impressive blooms throughout the growing season.
Seaweed has long been valued by gardeners as a natural addition to plant-care programmes. Ecofective's concentrated Organic Seaweed is designed as a natural growth stimulant rather than simply another general-purpose fertiliser, making it ideal for supplementing a regular feeding and watering routine.
The seaweed is 100% cold pressed, helping retain the naturally occurring compounds for which seaweed-based plant products are valued. The concentrate can be used across a wide range of plant types, making it a versatile addition to the potting shed for gardeners growing mixed crops and ornamentals.
Why choose Ecofective Organic Seaweed?
Why use seaweed on plants?
Seaweed products are widely used by gardeners and professional growers as plant biostimulants. Rather than being used solely for their conventional fertiliser value, seaweed-based products are incorporated into growing programmes to support plant development and complement normal crop nutrition.
Ecofective Organic Seaweed is specifically marketed as a natural growth stimulant, providing an additional tonic boost to plants throughout the garden.
This makes it particularly useful during periods of active vegetative growth, flowering and crop development, when plants are working hardest and good overall plant health is important.
100% cold pressed organic seaweed
Ecofective Organic Seaweed is produced using a 100% cold-press process. Cold pressing provides a straightforward way of extracting useful components from the seaweed without subjecting the raw material to unnecessary high-temperature processing.
The result is a concentrated liquid seaweed product that can be diluted and incorporated easily into an existing plant-care programme.
Because it is designed for a broad range of plants, one bottle can be used across mixed garden planting rather than requiring a separate seaweed product for individual crops.
Suitable for flowers, fruit & vegetables
Ecofective Organic Seaweed is suitable for all plant types, making it particularly useful for gardeners managing several different crops and ornamentals.
The broad application makes it easy to incorporate seaweed into a general garden-care programme without restricting the product to one particular plant group.
How to use Ecofective Organic Seaweed
Shake the bottle before use. Ecofective Organic Seaweed is supplied as a concentrated liquid and should be diluted with water before application.
Measure the appropriate amount into a watering can, add water and mix thoroughly before applying around the plant's root zone. It can be incorporated into the normal watering and feeding routine during active plant growth.
Application requirements can vary according to plant type, season and growing conditions, so always follow the current dilution rate and frequency printed on the product packaging.
Seaweed should complement rather than automatically replace a complete plant nutrition programme. Where plants require significant amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium or other essential nutrients, use an appropriate fertiliser alongside the seaweed treatment.
Seaweed tonic or plant fertiliser?
Seaweed products and complete plant feeds serve related but different purposes. A conventional fertiliser is primarily selected to provide essential mineral nutrients, commonly expressed through an NPK analysis.
Ecofective Organic Seaweed is positioned as a natural plant growth stimulant and tonic. Its role is therefore to complement plant nutrition and support overall plant performance rather than simply acting as another standard NPK feed.
This distinction makes Organic Seaweed particularly useful for gardeners who already have a feeding programme but want to introduce the additional benefits associated with a seaweed-based plant stimulant.
