Know before you buy
You can use the tonic as part of your regular plant care routine to maintain leaf health and vibrancy. Because it is a gentle, organic formula, it is safe for consistent use, though we recommend observing your plant's response to determine the ideal frequency for your specific environment.
Yes, it is formulated to be safe for most common houseplants. However, as with any foliar spray, it is best to test a small, inconspicuous leaf first if you are treating delicate or fuzzy-leaved varieties to ensure they react well to the oils.
The Leaf Tonic is intentionally crafted without synthetic preservatives. Once mixed with water, the organic ingredients begin to degrade, so using the solution within seven days ensures you are applying the most effective, nutrient-rich formula to your plants.
No, when mixed at the recommended ratio of 1/4 teaspoon per 16 oz of water, the tonic absorbs well and leaves behind a healthy, natural glow rather than a sticky film. It is designed to enhance the plant's appearance while providing essential nutrients.
Absolutely. The formula is non-toxic and made with plant-based ingredients like Jojoba, Neem, and Rosemary, making it a safe choice for households with curious pets.
The tonic includes Neem and Karanja oils, which are well-regarded for their ability to deter common houseplant pests. While it is primarily a nutrient-rich foliar tonic, its regular use creates an environment that is naturally less hospitable to unwanted insects.
