Use of organic fertilizer

Many are in doubt about how and how often to fertilize their plants, but it does not have to be complicated. The most important thing is to consider the plant's needs and the rhythm of the seasons. During the growing season, most plants need more nutrients, while the need is typically lower during the darker months when growth naturally slows down.

Organic fertilizer is a good choice because it works more gently and supports a natural balance in the plant. It provides nutrients gradually and reduces the risk of over-fertilization, making it suitable for both beginners and more experienced plant owners. At the same time, it is an obvious choice for those who want a more sustainable approach to plant care and products that harmonize with a natural way of growing and caring for plants. All our different organic fertilizers come with easy and simple instructions, so you are never in doubt about how or how much to dose.

Frequently asked questions about organic fertilizer

What is the difference between liquid and solid organic fertilizer?

Liquid organic fertilizer is quickly absorbed by plants and is ideal for regular fertilization during the growing season, when plants need nutrients immediately. It is easy to dose and particularly well-suited for houseplants, pots, and window boxes.

Solid organic fertilizer releases nutrients more slowly and works over a longer period. It also improves soil structure and microbial life, making it suitable as a long-acting fertilizer for both the garden and larger pots.

How do you store organic fertilizer?

Organic fertilizer is best stored in a dark and cool place. A cupboard in the utility room, for example, is a good spot.

Which organic fertilizer is best for houseplants?

Houseplants generally require a good organic all-around fertilizer. We usually recommend our small organic houseplant fertilizer if you don't have many plants. If you have many plants, we recommend our larger organic fertilizer with easy pump dosing.

- Birgitte

How often should you use organic fertilizer for plants?

As a rule, you should fertilize more in the summer when the plant is growing than in the winter. Some plants, especially cacti and succulents, should not be fertilized at all in the winter. However, most plants benefit from a little bit of fertilizer even in the winter. Each of our products also has a short guide where you can read about the best method to follow.

What is the difference between organic fertilizer and conventional fertilizer?

Organic fertilizer is based on natural raw materials such as plant and animal matter and releases nutrients slowly in line with the soil's microbiological activity. At the same time, it improves the soil's structure and life.

Conventional (chemical) fertilizer is industrially produced and provides quickly available nutrients, but does not contribute to the long-term health of the soil. Organic fertilizer is therefore a more sustainable choice for both the garden and houseplants.

- Birgitte

Why is organic fertilizer better for the environment and climate?

Organic fertilizer is better for the climate because it is made from natural residual products and requires far less energy to produce than conventional fertilizer. At the same time, it helps build up the soil's carbon content and supports active microbial life, which can sequester CO₂ in the soil.

Synthetic fertilizer, on the other hand, is produced through highly resource-intensive processes that require large amounts of energy and the use of harsh chemicals – for instance, in the production of nitrogen fertilizer. Furthermore, organic fertilizer reduces the risk of nutrient leaching into the aquatic environment, which, all in all, makes it a more sustainable choice for the climate, the soil, and biodiversity.

- Birgitte

Can organic fertilizer be used for all types of plants?

Yes, you can. However, you should be aware that different types of plants require different compositions of organic fertilizer. It is therefore always a good idea to buy the fertilizer intended for your specific plants. For example, using orchid fertilizer for orchids and cactus fertilizer for cacti.

- Martin

Can organic fertilizer attract pests or fungus gnats?

Organic fertilizer does not generally attract pests if used correctly. Most pests target the plant itself – not the fertilizer – and healthy, well-nourished plants are often more resistant to attacks.

By choosing well-composted organic fertilizer, dosing correctly, and avoiding overwatering, you minimize the risk while creating a healthier growing environment for your plants.
