Empathy Afterplant is a biologically active general plant food for herbaceous perennials, edibles and trees, incorporating natural sources of nitrogen and potassium as well as rootgrow mycorrhizal fungi, which work with the roots in natural harmony to stimulate stronger roots that absorb mroe feed and are more disease resistant. Empathy Afterplant contains Alfalfa, as a source of plant derived nitrogen, required for top growth and greening. Together with seaweed meal and green compost as sources of potassium, required for flowering and fruiting. The humates in Empathy Afterplant offer sources of organic acids that are essential for soil fertility. Empathy Afterplant also contains rootgrow mycorrhizal fungi, these natural fungi are essential to soil life, continually growing out from the roots of a treated plant into the soil finding new sources of nutrients and water. This huge secondary root system increases the nutrient flow to the plant over its entire life time, resulting in 'stronger healthier plants.'
