General Information

Use:

All purpose "safe" fertiliser and soil conditioner.

Technical Details

Good balance of nutrients providing all required nutrients including trace elements.

Low in major nutrient levels, it is an ideal "safe fertiliser" for all types of plants in various situations.

Growth-promoting enzymes and trace elements contained in the natural ingredients act as a catalyst aiding the uptake of nutrients.

Ideal to assist seeds in germination and seedlings in early growth stages.

Contains natural soaps which occur during the fish processing which are excellent wetting agents.

Neem oil has been added to further aid wetting.

Used as a soil conditioner, the poly saccharates increase the micro-organism activity in the soil, decreasing the effects of high salinity. Increasing the soil's natural bacterial activity aids in the mobilization of previously locked up plant nutrients.

Applied as a foliar spray, nutrients are absorbed rapidly giving stressed plants a fast pick-me-up.

General Application Rates

Crop		Recommended Application Rate	Dilution	Frequency

Fruit trees:	Small	Foliar spray at recommended dilution to drip point	10 ml/L	As required
	Large
Leaf vegetables		1 ml/m²(10 L/Hectare)	10 ml/L	Weekly
Flowers		Spray at recommended dilution to drip point	5 ml/L	Twice weekly
Orchids		Spray at recommended dilution to drip point	3 ml/L	Weekly
Note: For delicate plants or tender new growth, reduce dilution to 5 ml/L (or 1:200) for either application method. When applied to soil ensure product is watered in well.

Crop Specific Application Rates

Important: Application rates will vary with soil types, climatic conditions and prior cultivation practices. The application rates suggested below assume that soil and climatic conditions are conducive to the particular crop intended. Therefore the information below is a broadly-based indication only.

Vegetables: as a complete fertilising regime Suggested application rates are based on weekly intervals. Volumes given in this table refer to concentrated product. The concentrate must be diluted 50ml/L or 1:20 (1 part concentrate to 20 parts water) for either foliar or soil applications prior to use.
Crop	Weekly application rate/growth stage	Comment/Other nutrients

Peas Beans Melons Cucumber Pumpkins Sweet corn Tomatoes	7 ml/m² during all stages of growth as either foliar or soil application	After flowering to harvest apply 0.5 ml/m² of Moeco 85 at weekly intervals. Moeco85 is not considered organic, but may be substituted with 0.7g/m² of potassium sulphate.
Cabbage Lettuce Sweet potatoes	8 ml/m²during all stages of growth as either foliar or soil application	Cabbage may need some extra sulphur. Potassium sulphate at a rate of 0.5g/m² will supply the extra need. About 100g will dissolve in 1L of water.
Shrubs Flowers	3 – 5 ml/m²	Use lower recommended dilution rate for delicate plants such as ferns and orchids.
NB: For fortnightly applications, double the rate

Orchards, Vineyards, Miscellaneous Crops: as a complete fertilising regime Suggested application rates are based on weekly intervals. Volumes given in this table refer to concentrated product. The concentrate must be diluted 50ml/L or 1:20 (1 part concentrate to 20 parts water) for either foliar or soil applications prior to use.
Crop	Weekly application rate/growth stage	Comment/Other nutrients

Mangoes (NT & Nth Qld)	30 ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 300 ml. Apply from harvest to approx 1 month prior to flowering (late March to late April), as either soil or foliar application.	From flowering to harvest use Moeco 85 at a rate of 5 ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 50 ml OR Moeco 29 at 10 ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 100 ml at weekly intervals. After fruit set, Moeco Calcium Boron Gold at 3ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 30 ml at monthly intervals as foliar application.
Citrus Rambutan Abui Lychee Custard apple Five corner	30 ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 300 ml throughout all stages of growth as either foliar or soil application.	From fruit set to harvest, in addition to Moeco 28, apply Moeco 85 at 2 ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 20 ml at weekly intervals. After fruit set, Moeco Calcium Boron Gold at 3 ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 30 ml at monthly intervals as foliar application.
Pineapple Banana Tobacco Sugar cane	15 ml/m² during all growth stages as either foliar or soil application.	In addition to Moeco 28, apply Moeco 85 at 0.5 ml/m² at weekly intervals.
Passion Fruit	10–20 ml per vine, as either foliar or soil application.	Use the lower rate until flowering and the higher rate during flowering and fruiting.
Papaw	15-25 ml/tree until flowering and first sign of fruit set. Then 30-60 ml/tree, as either foliar or soil application.	Use 30 ml of Moeco Calcium Boron Gold, foliar application and 15 ml Moeco 85 once per month.
Vine Grapes	15 ml/vine per year of age of vine up to 300 ml, from bud burst to harvest. Use half the above amount after harvest to leaf drop, as either foliar or soil application.	It is important to keep fertilising until leaf drop. This ensures good nutrient storage for next season's crop.
Pome Stone Fruit	30 ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 300 ml, from bud burst buds until harvest. Use half the above amount after harvest to leaf drop as either foliar or soil application.	To prevent fruit split or bitter pit, from fruit set to harvest, apply Moeco Calcium Boron Gold at 10ml/tree per year of age of tree up to 100 ml at monthly intervals as foliar spray.
