FAQs

What is Ecothrive Charge?

Ecothrive Charge is a premium organic soil conditioner and plant booster made from insect frass. It's rich in chitin, beneficial microbes, and essential nutrients that enhance soil health and plant growth. This natural product improves soil structure, boosts microbial activity, and strengthens plants' natural defences. Ecothrive Charge is suitable for all types of plants and growing methods, making it a versatile choice for gardeners and growers.

How often should I use Ecothrive Charge?

For best results, apply Ecothrive Charge every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. In new gardens or poor soil conditions, you can use it more frequently, about every 2-3 weeks, for the first few months. For potted plants, mix it into the soil when repotting or top-dress monthly. Adjust application frequency based on plant response and soil health.

Can I use Charge in hydroponics?

Yes, Ecothrive Charge can be used in hydroponic systems. It's particularly beneficial in organic hydroponics, where it can be added to the nutrient solution or used as a top dressing for media-based systems. Start with a small amount and gradually increase to find the optimal dosage for your setup. The chitin content can help protect roots and boost plant immunity in hydroponic environments.

Is Ecothrive Charge suitable for organic growing?

Absolutely! Ecothrive Charge is 100% organic and approved for use in organic farming. It's made from natural insect frass without any synthetic additives. The product enhances soil biology and plant health using nature's own processes. It's an excellent choice for organic growers looking to improve soil fertility and plant vitality without relying on synthetic fertilizers.

How does Charge benefit soil health?

Ecothrive Charge benefits soil health in multiple ways. It introduces beneficial microorganisms that improve soil structure and nutrient cycling. The chitin content stimulates beneficial fungi and suppresses harmful nematodes. It also enhances water retention, aeration, and overall soil biodiversity. These combined effects create a healthier, more balanced soil ecosystem that supports robust plant growth.

Can Charge help with pest control?

While Ecothrive Charge isn't a direct pesticide, it can help with pest management. The chitin in Charge stimulates plants' natural defense mechanisms, making them more resistant to pests and diseases. Additionally, the improved soil health and increased beneficial microbial activity can create an environment less favourable to many common garden pests.

How should I store Ecothrive Charge?

Store Ecothrive Charge in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to preserve its effectiveness and prevent moisture absorption. Avoid storing in areas with extreme temperatures. When stored properly, Charge can maintain its potency for up to two years from the manufacturing date.

How long does it take to see results with Charge?

Results from using Ecothrive Charge can typically be observed within 2-4 weeks, depending on plant type and growing conditions. You may notice improved plant vigor, enhanced growth rates, and increased resistance to stress. For long-term benefits, consistent use over several months will lead to progressively healthier soil and more robust plants.

Can I use Charge with other fertilizers?

Yes, Ecothrive Charge can be used alongside other fertilizers. It complements both organic and synthetic nutrient regimes by improving nutrient uptake and soil health. However, it's best to avoid applying it simultaneously with high-strength synthetic fertilizers. For optimal results, use Charge as part of a balanced feeding program, adjusting other inputs as needed.

Is Charge safe for beneficial insects?

Ecothrive Charge is safe for beneficial insects when used as directed. It doesn't contain harmful pesticides or chemicals that might harm pollinators or predatory insects. In fact, the improved plant health resulting from Charge use can create a better environment for beneficial insects. Always follow application guidelines and avoid direct contact with beneficial insects during application.
