Autumn gardening perfection: Enhance your soil & feed your plants with Yates dynamic lifter organic plant food & soil improver

 

Autumn, with its mild weather and warm soil, presents a fantastic opportunity for planting. But did you know the key to unlocking the full potential of your garden throughout this season lies beneath the surface – in the health of your soil? By integrating Yates® Dynamic Lifter® Organic Plant Food & Soil Improver, you’re ensuring your soil is not just good, but great! The result? Beautiful blooms and, importantly, a bounty of nutrient-rich produce.

Laying the foundation

Healthy soil isn’t just about growing plants; it’s about cultivating a dynamic ecosystem that supports our wellbeing. The introduction of Yates® Dynamic Lifter® Organic Plant Food & Soil Improver is comparable to laying a strong foundation for your house. It ensures your plants have the best start and, ultimately, that your plate is filled with nutrient-dense foods.

Bringing soil to life

The rich organic matter in Yates® Dynamic Lifter® Organic Plant Food & Soil Improver not only helps to boost soil structure and moisture retention, it encourages earthworms and beneficial soil microorganisms. Just like a healthy gut microbiome supports our wellbeing, a diverse population of soil microorganisms helps promote healthy soil and a thriving garden.

Easy steps to soil health

Yates® Dynamic Lifter® Organic Plant Food & Soil Improver’s special blend of composted chicken manure, fish meal, blood & bone and seaweed helps maintain levels of organic matter in the soil and provide plants with a gentle, slow-release feed. Start by loosening the soil, then apply this plant-boosting blend, ensuring it’s well mixed in. Or add it directly to the planting hole.

Small space care

For those who have small or balcony gardens, Yates® Dynamic Lifter® Reduced Odour Organic Plant Food & Soil Improver is your go-to solution. It ensures plants are well supported, but has a lighter smell that reduces quickly once watered in.

Safety tip: After applying fertiliser around edible plants, delay harvesting for a few days and rinse produce well before cooking and eating. Wear gloves and a mask when handling plant food. Store all garden chemicals and products out of the reach of children and pets.
