Back Country Blend Grow is Green Planet's controlled-release granular base nutrient for the vegetative stage — the "set and forget" half of feeding an outdoor or container garden. Top dress it around the base of your plants or mix it through the soil, water it in, and it delivers a steady N-P-K-Ca feed for weeks at a time with no bottles, no measuring jugs, and no daily mixing. Part of the Back Country Blend outdoor feed program alongside Bloom and Boost.

Two nitrogen sources for veg A dual-nitrogen blend measured for the vegetative stage — driving photosynthesis, vigorous growth, and dark green foliage.
Controlled release, no burn Granules feed steadily over weeks rather than dumping nutrients at once, so overfeeding and tip burn are far harder to do.
Buffers soil pH Neutralises acidic soils to help prevent deficiencies and nutrient lockout, with humic acids improving soil texture, water retention, and microbial life.
Set and forget Feed roughly every four weeks, and the sealed granules store across multiple growing seasons without degrading.

Grow Guys tip
  • It's concentrated — measure carefully and start light. You can always add more; you can't take it back out.
  • Heat, humidity, and rainfall speed up release. In hot or wet conditions, back the rate off slightly to avoid over-fertilising.
  • Top dress inside the drip line — only where the water actually lands. With drippers, split the dose into small piles under each dripper.
  • Application rates scale with pot size and plant height — check Green Planet's online nutrient calculator for your setup.

How to use

1
Measure your dose based on pot size or plant height — Green Planet's nutrient calculator gives the rate for your setup.
2
Top dress around the base of the plant inside the drip line, or mix through the soil before planting.
3
Water in thoroughly, and keep soil moisture consistent — the granules release with each watering.
4
Reapply at week 4 (or every 4 weeks as needed) through veg, then stop 2 weeks before flower and switch to Back Country Blend Bloom.

FAQ

Is Back Country Blend Grow for the vegetative stage?

Yes. Grow is the vegetative-stage formula in the Back Country Blend program, with two nitrogen sources measured for leafy, vigorous growth. Bloom takes over for flowering, and Boost adds extra PK alongside it.

How often do I apply it?

Apply at week 1 and week 4 of veg, or every 4 weeks as needed. Stop use 2 weeks before flower and move to the Bloom formula.

Will it burn my plants?

No, not when applied at the recommended rate — the controlled-release granules are designed to feed gradually and avoid burning. It is concentrated though, so measure carefully and reduce the rate in hot or wet conditions where release speeds up. If tip burn appears, irrigate with fresh water.

Is it organic?

No. Back Country Blend is a mineral controlled-release fertiliser with added humic acids — it supports soil microbial life but isn't a certified organic input. If you're running a strictly organic garden, look at our organic soil feeds instead.

Can I use it in pots as well as garden beds?

Yes. It works as a top dress or mixed through the media in containers, raised beds, and open ground, in both soil and coco. Rates scale with pot size, so check Green Planet's nutrient calculator for your containers.

Growers First, Retailers Second

Welcome to The Grow Guys

We built The Grow Guys from the soil up — well, coco and perlite. Before we sold gear, we bought it, ran it, and learned the hard way what's worth the money and what ends up in the shed. That's the filter everything on our shelves passes through. No sales scripts, no rebadged junk, no telling you what you want to hear. Just gear we'd run ourselves and advice from people who actually grow. Chasing higher yields, tighter flowers, or your first harvest? You're in the right place.
