Description
What is Orchid Boost?
Orchid Boost 1 Litre is a liquid 10-10-10 fertiliser purpose-built for orchids, enriched with organic compounds sourced from brown coal, fish and earthworm exudates rather than being a straight synthetic NPK mix.
Who it’s for
- Orchid growers, hobbyist through to serious collectors
- Anyone wanting a balanced feed with added biological inputs, not just NPK
Why it works
Alongside its balanced 10-10-10 base, Orchid Boost includes seaweed, humic and fulvic acids, trace elements, vitamins, amino acids and silica — ingredients chosen to support strong, healthy orchid growth beyond what a plain NPK fertiliser provides. Fulvic and humic acids in particular improve nutrient uptake, while silica supports stronger cell structure.
