FAQ

What precautions should I take when handling Bush Tucker to stay safe?

Always read and follow the label instructions before use to ensure proper handling and safety. Avoid inhaling dust by opening the bag gently and using the product in well-ventilated areas. After handling, wash your hands thoroughly and keep the product out of reach of children and pets.

How can I prevent nutrient imbalances or overapplication of Bush Tucker?

Use only the recommended amount of organic fertiliser for Australian natives based on plant type, size, and growing conditions. Overapplication can lead to nutrient build-up in the soil, which may harm sensitive native plants. Regularly monitor plant health and consider soil testing to guide your fertiliser schedule.

Why is wearing protective gear recommended during application of this product?

Wearing gloves, a dust mask, and eye protection helps prevent skin, respiratory, or eye irritation from fertiliser dust. Even natural-based products like Bush Tucker can cause discomfort if mishandled. Protective gear ensures safe application, especially in windy conditions or when spreading the fertiliser over large areas.

Is the graphic correct, 3kg per square meter? Michael Brennan asked on 28 May 2025

Hey Michael,
Neutrog's video of Bush Tucker - Native Plant Fertiliser show that the product can be used for both phosphorus-sensitive and non phosphorus-sensitive species together. The 3kg per square metre is showing the efficacy between the standard rate and what an elevated rate will have on phosphorus-sensitive plants. This is not the standard rate used.

What is the pH of bush tucker? Simon asked on 2 February 2025

The specific pH of Neutrog's Bush Tucker – Native Plant Fertiliser isn't explicitly stated in the available sources. However, it's formulated to be suitable for Australian native plants, including those sensitive to phosphorus. Generally, Australian native plants thrive in soils with a pH range of 5.5 to 7.5.

For optimal results, it's advisable to test your soil's pH and adjust as necessary to meet the needs of your native plants.
