How to Use Activator Soil Conditioner
INSTRUCTIONS
All the ingredients help create a stable and rich organic growing environment that nurtures and adds living microbial activity back into your soil. After application, exceptional plant growth is guaranteed. The long-term wetting agents and humates help reduce watering and leaching of nutrients into the environment while making them available to the plants when they want them.
This unique Humus-Like product is vital to conditioning your soil because it readily chelates, making all nutrients and minerals available for the plants while increasing water holding capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions
The UltraGrow brand was born over 30-years ago as a classification for the custom-blended soil our parent company, Centenary Landscaping Supplies, was producing. These soils were and still are unique. We started UltraGrow due to our dissatisfaction with the poor soil quality available to commercial and retail markets. An industry based on using waste material and soil as a vehicle for disposal rather than establishing beautiful gardens.
Through years of research and development, the UltraGrow Collection has become one of the most trusted brands in bulk and bagged soil, potting mix and soil conditioner. As our tagline suggests, UltraGrow undoubtedly is Growing Media You Can Trust.
Choosing good soil is fundamental as it will make up the foundation of your landscaped gardens for many years. After spending hundreds or thousands of dollars on plants or turf, protect your investment by giving them the best possible start. UltraGrow is a collection of exceptional quality landscape products, including waste-free soils, potting mixes and soil conditioners, and a range of bioliquid and granular fertilisers, which combine to provide plants with everything they need to flourish and improve with age. UltraGrow is uncompromising quality and performance.
We’ve redefined soils with rigorous horticultural science keeping in mind the gardener, landscaper, architect and nursery person.
Everything included in our blends have been selected for very specific reasons be it to improve the air-filled porosity, increase water holding capacity or feed the plant and micro organisms. Everything plays a part in creating a growing medium designed to encourage healthy plant growth.
Most commercially available soils and potting mix blends are comprised of a combination of loam soil and poorly composted green-waste supplied by the recycling industry. In the composting process, liquids are added. Though highly regulated, the quality of the finished product can be highly variable and inconsistent compromising the finished product.
Thorough watering is required after planting to activate the microbes and nutrients incorporated in UltraGrow Blends. These essential nutrients last up to 16-months, while the bio inoculants make this a living medium, resulting in healthy plant growth for many years. Â A balanced fertiliser has been added at the time of manufacture, but specialist fertiliser may be required for optimal growth in some applications.
