Product Description

Lush Leaves and Strong Roots — A 30-10-10 Grow Formula Built for Orchids

Old Cobblers Farm Wicked Growth 30-10-10 is a high-nitrogen, water-soluble orchid fertilizer for the vegetative growth phase — the months when your orchid is building leaves, roots, and pseudobulbs rather than flowering. The 30-10-10 analysis means it contains 30% nitrogen to fuel rich, deep-green foliage and strong new shoots, 10% phosphorus for root and rhizome development, and 10% potassium for overall stress tolerance.

Orchids feed differently from garden plants: most grow in bark or moss rather than soil, and their roots take up nutrients from very dilute solutions. That's why this formula is used at just ¼ teaspoon per gallon of water — a gentle weekly feed that supports steady growth, with roughly 960 doses in a single 5 lb bag. The strong vegetative foundation it builds is what sets the plant up for bigger, longer-lasting flowers when bloom season arrives.

Key Benefits

High-nitrogen grow formula — 30% nitrogen fuels rich, deep-green leaves and strong new shoots during the months when orchids build their structure.

Root and rhizome support — 10% phosphorus supports the root and rhizome development that orchids — especially bark-grown epiphytes — depend on.

Gentle weekly feeding — Used at just ¼ teaspoon per gallon, it delivers nutrients at the dilute strength orchid roots are adapted to.

Builds the pre-bloom foundation — A strong vegetative phase is what produces bigger, longer-lasting flowers when bloom season arrives.

Exceptional value per dose — Around 960 doses per 5 lb bag — a small scoop goes an extraordinarily long way.

One formula for the whole collection — Suits Phalaenopsis, Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium, and other popular genera, epiphytic and terrestrial.

Where to use it: indoor windowsills, greenhouses, and shaded patios growing Phalaenopsis (moth orchid), Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium, Miltoniopsis, Paphiopedilum (lady slipper), Vanda, Brassia, Ludisia (jewel orchid), and Zygopetalum — epiphytic and terrestrial orchids alike.

Application Instructions

-Mix ¼ teaspoon per gallon of water. Never exceed this rate, orchid roots are sensitive, and a stronger solution can damage them.
Steps:
1. Dissolve ¼ teaspoon of fertilizer fully in 1 gallon of water.
2. Water your orchids with the solution as you normally would, wetting the roots and growing medium. Never apply dry product directly to roots, bark, or moss.
3. Feed weekly during active vegetative growth (typically spring and summer).
4. Once a month, flush each pot with plain water to prevent nutrient and mineral buildup in the growing medium.
5. When flower spikes begin to emerge, switch to a bloom formula (lower nitrogen, higher phosphorus) to support flowering.
What NOT to do: do not exceed ¼ teaspoon per gallon, do not apply undissolved product to roots or media, and do not skip the monthly plain-water flush.
