Application
Empathy AFTER PLANT OLIVE TREES is ideal for…..
Plants in the ground: Apply 1-2 handfuls (25 – 50g) around the base of the plant, lightly worked into the soil and water well. For larger established plants apply 2 handfuls per square meter under the canopy of the plant.
Container plants: Apply 2 – 3 handfuls per plant twice yearly. We recommend that once per year 5 – 10cm (2-4inches) of soil are removed from the top of the pot and replaced with fresh compost. Add 1 – 2 handfuls when replacing the compost to keep your olive trees in prime condition.
Apply in spring at the first signs of growth, throughout summer as required and as an autumn top dress.
Empathy AFTER PLANT OLIVE TREES is NOT a substitute for using rootgrow™ at time of planting. For new plantings, or in poor soil conditions, we recommend using pure rootgrow™ mycorrhizal fungi applied close to the plant’s roots.
