How to Fertilise a Vegetable Garden Organically | Australian Guide
Organic vegetable garden care: preparation & ongoing feeding
This guide outlines organic fertiliser application rates for vegetable gardens and flower beds under Australian conditions. It covers soil preparation, planting, ongoing feeding through growth and flowering, and targeted nutrition strategies to support healthy soil biology, strong root development, and nutrient-dense produce using Soil Dynamics organic products.
Prepare a Garden Bed
Pro tip: If you have sandy soil add our Coastal Cure before planting this is a super important step for fixing hydrophobic soil long term.
Pro Benefit: Why are our products priced higher? They're commercial grade, certified organic, and 5x more concentrated than most products on the market. This means they actually work out cheaper - one 9 litre watering can covers 8-10 sqm versus the 2-4 sqm coverage of typical products. You use less and get more coverage and save time
You can’t overdo it with our products, so there’s no need to be overly precise when measuring. All liquid products can be mixed, just don’t leave them premixed, as some inputs may settle at the bottom of the watering can.
Soil Preparation and base Nutrition
Step 1: Upfront soil preparation
- Incorporate 1-2 heaped handfuls ( approx 250g per sqm ) of Nutrient Rock Star into the soil 50 – 100 mm ( if possible add some quality compost ( if you are uncertain if your compost is mature wait 1 -2 weeks for it to fully compost to prevent burn) - you are now ready to plant
- If you are planting root veggies, include the Growing Goodness at same rate as the Nutrient Rock Star
Step 2: At Planting
- Water in well with Happy Gut Tonic
(20–40 ml per 9 L watering can – covers approx. 10 sqm) - Water off any residue on foliage to prevent sunburn
- Happy Gut Tonic stimulates early root development for stronger, tougher plants
Step 3: Two weeks after planting
- Apply The Protein Shake (100% pure fish)
- 1st application: 180 ml per 9 L
- 2nd application: 90 ml
- Maintenance: 45–65 ml
- Water off residue
- This drives healthy vegetative growth
Step 4: Ongoing establishment feeding
- Alternate Happy Gut Tonic and The Protein Shake weekly as a soil drench or foliar spray
- Products can be mixed if required (may fizz slightly — this is normal
Step 5: Microbial and mineral support
-
Apply and alternate every third week:
- Jurassic Juice: 20 ml
- Regenerate Elixir: 20–40 ml
Step 6: Mid -growth and flowering stage
- At mid-growth for leafy greens, or first flower for fruiting plants (tomatoes, peas, etc.):
- Apply Nutrient Rock Star as a light top dress around the base of plants
- Sprinkle Growing Goodness at the same time
- Must be watered in
- Can be timed with liquid feeding to save water (optional)
Step 8 : Ongoing liquid feeding routine
- Continue weekly alternation of Happy Gut Tonic and The Protein Shake
- Every third week, alternate Jurassic Juice and Regenerate Elixir
Step 9: Second growth, flowering or at ripening for edibles
- Apply another light top dress of Nutrient Rock Star
- Supports mineral transfer into fruit development and improves nutrient density of your produce
Step 10: End of crop Nutrition
- Use Regenerate Elixir toward crop maturity to drive calcium and trace elements
Organic Fertiliser rates for existing garden beds
Pro Tip (Hydrophobic soils) :
If dealing with hydrophobic soil, apply an upfront addition of Nutrient Rock Star. Then apply Jurassic Juice weekly at 50–100 ml per 9 L for 6 weeks, then reduce to fortnightly until improvement is visible. In summer heat, return to fortnightly if required
Follow the steps above, replacing the incorporation of Nutrient Rock Star with a top dress applied around the base of plants and watered in well.

Bought the bundle to see my fertilizer needs fulfilled for the winter season and have just planted my winter veg in my new wicking beds, all great so far, gave some of my fruit trees a boost as well. All set until spring now. Great products worked well in spring summer, I still have a cucumber plant from summer giving me fruit.
I can't say enough about all the soil dynamics products. My fruit trees and vegetables are thriving thanks to these great products. Where i thought my rare trees were dying are now producing fruit. Vegetables are big, juicy and tasty.
I gave it a go. Will not go back to off the shelf chemical based stuff It performs as promised. I highly tecomend. Very HAPPY!
These products are wonderful, the garden looks amazing, and the fertiliser guide is super helpful.
Love your work
Recently bought the foundation bundle and am very happy with the product/s. I believe these will be very beneficial for my garden.
Bought the Foundation Bundle. Repaired my buffalo lawn. Plus bonus, this year I’ve managed to successfully keep avocados growing on my larger tree 🥑 Have placed a second order.
My poor citrus trees were on their last legs. I added Regenerate elixir to my regime and they've sprouted new growth plus fruit. I thought they were dying. Amazing stuff
I’m loving the products, my garden is enjoying them and they are easy to use. Delivery was very prompt. I’ll be back for more!
My poor garden wasn't doing well. My citrus trees were dying. After the second week using these products my garden and trees look like new. New growth everywhere. I can't say enough about it. The instructions on the download and on the bottles are different so you need to think about what you're using, especially the amounts. Bit confusing
I've added this to my gardens and I know it's helping my plants to grow strong and healthy.
The first bag I bought was a small bag and the sides split open during transport. I bought the bucket full so that won't happen again
One week after I gave my sick and dying citrus trees a dose of Jurassic juice, they recovered, started punching out new growth and I'm now seeing fruit developing. It pays to purchase the 4 litre bottles because it works out a lot cheaper.
