Stem and Leaf
Stem&Leaf Premium Plant Food: All Natural
Give your plants the ultimate head start. Handcrafted in small batches here in Cornwall, our premium all naturall nitrogen feed is a masterfully blended powder and granule formula designed for growers who demand exceptional leaf development and vigorous early growth.
Formulated with a targeted NPK of 2.5-0.3-2, this professional-grade blend provides a gentle, slow-release charge of plant-based nitrogen. It is inherently rich in Triacontanol—a powerful, naturally occurring growth compound that acts as a potent biostimulant to drive cellular expansion, boost chlorophyll production, and build a dense, vibrant green canopy.

Application Rates & Frequency
Because this premium plant-derived formula is entirely slow-release and biology-gated, it cannot scorch or burn sensitive young roots or seedlings. The application rates mirror our signature sizing ecosystem (based on a standard 15g tablespoon):
| Setup Type | Pot / Garden Area Size | Recommended Amount | Feeding Frequency |
| Small Pots | Up to 5 Litres (approx. 15–20cm diameter) | 1 Tablespoon (approx. 15g) | Vegetative, Growing Phase: Every 2 to 3 weeks Bloom Phase: Switch to Root&Bloom |
| Medium Pots | 10–15 Litres (approx. 25–30cm diameter) | 2 Tablespoons (approx. 30g) | Vegetative, Growing Phase: Every 2 to 3 weeks Bloom Phase: Switch to Root&Bloom |
| Large Containers | 20–30 Litres (approx. 35–40cm diameter) | 3–4 Tablespoons (approx. 45–60g) | Vegetative, Growing Phase: Every 2 to 3 weeks Bloom Phase: Switch to Root&Bloom |
| Garden Beds | Per Square Metre (1m²) | 50g–70g sprinkled evenly | Vegetative, Growing Phase: Every 4 weeks Bloom Phase: Switch to Root&Bloom |
How to Apply
1. Top Dress: Apply the required amount of powder and granules directly to the surface of the soil around the base of the plant.
2. Incorporate: Cover with a thin, fresh layer of soil or gently work the blend into the top layer of existing soil.
3. Activate: Water the soil thoroughly immediately after application to engage the local soil microbes and release the slow-acting nutrients.

Storage Instructions
* Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
* Keep the pack tightly sealed between uses to prevent moisture absorption.
* Keep out of reach of children and pets.

Why These Application Rates Are True to the Nutrient Value
This data is completely accurate for a premium, non-synthetic alfalfa-based input. In organic horticulture, a slow-release nitrogen value of 2.5-0.3-2 means the nutrition is entirely bound up within natural plant proteins.
* Microbial Activation: It relies on your soil biology to digest the material and convert it into accessible food.
* Zero Scorch Risk: Because there are no free nitrates or synthetic chemical salts, it is impossible to cause root burn, even if applied slightly over the baseline.
* The Perfect Growing Companion: Feeding this at 15g per 5L of soil gives the plant a steady, sustainable stream of amino acids and growth hormones to develop an exceptional structural canopy before transitioning into flower.
