About Nature's Curator

Feedback from the gardeners

Why is it different?
Unlike plant food or fertilizer, Nature’s Curator does not add anything to the growing environment. Instead it activates plants natural health & growth systems from the inside out.

Essentially, on a plants leaf are receptor cells which report the environmental situation to the plant including; alerting it to changes in temperature and climate conditions, signalling a requirement for absorption of nutrients, warning it if bugs are attacking or if disease spores have landed.

When a light mist of Nature's Curator lands on the leaf it mimics these environmental changes. The receptor cells react instantly to tell the plant it needs to increase production of essential oils. These oils are used to improve health, enhance growth, withstand environmental stresses and repair and prevent damage from pests and disease.

The plant does not need to absorb Nature's Curator, it simply reacts the way nature intended. The difference is that the gardener is applying the "attack" and repeatedly telling the plant it needs to keep producing essential oils to improve health, defend, grow and repair itself.

Repeat triggering of the immune system builds up an abundance of oils that spill over into the fruit, flowers and vegetables produced by the plant, increasing the flavour, colour, fragrance and texture of the harvest. These essential oils are beneficial to our health, so indirectly Nature's Curator is good for humans too.

What's in it?

Nature's Curator is a blend of tiny natural molecules extracted from various plants including coconut, aloe, kelp, lecithin and soy bean. Each of these extracts mimics a different environmental change. For example, the fatty acid molecule actually mimics a bug landing on the surface, another one slightly drys the cell, mimicking the effect of increased UV, wind or frost.
Nature's Curator does not contain chemicals, fertilizers, salicylic acid or hormones.

What results will I see in my garden?

Nature's Curator activates the plant's production of essential oils that;

• Produce brighter, more fragrant, longer lasting flowers. Florists have even seen  longer life in cut flowers and landscapers have reported shrubs with brighter contrast in variegated leaves, greener lawns and prolific budding.
• Produce larger, more prolific fruit, herbs and vegetables with more intense colour, flavour and crunchiness.
• Reduce plant stress, increase healing and improve natural defences against attack from disease, pests and environmental stress such as drought, wind, frost or poor soil conditions.
• Activate the roots so plants are better able to absorb nutrients. Many gardeners have found they require less fertilizer & pesticide due to the increased health of their garden, which saves you money and protects the environment.
• Transplanted plants and seedlings cope better with the change in environment because their health and growth systems are optimized.

"This product is absolutely fantastic! It's given great results on everything I've sprayed. The most outstanding result has been with my borer infested lemon tree that had given up the ghost. I sprayed it during summer and have been rewarded with a glossy, heathy tree loaded with masses of juicy fruit." - Joy Savage, Glenfield Auckland.

How do I use Nature's Curator?

1 capful makes 1 litre, you only need a light mist for Nature's Curator to work, and you can re-use mixed solution, so a bottle goes a very long way. Click here to watch a demonstrational video from Good Morning TV.

1) Shake the concentrate and mix 10mls, or one capful, to 1 litre of water in a trigger bottle or spray pack (to avoid excessive frothing, it is best to fill the spray pack to desired level with water first, then add the concentrate).

2) Shake the mixed solution vigorously and apply enough spray to lightly moisten the plants surface. It does not need to drip off, a very light mist landing on the leaves is enough to work.

3) Spray weekly until you see improved health, then simply spray whenever your plants need a boost or increased protection from pest or disease. Weekly spraying of a stressed or sick plant should produce a noticeable difference in plant growth, health or repair within just a few weeks.

Tips:

• You can store the mixed solution as long as you like, simply shake your trigger bottle or spray pack to reinvigorate the settled solution.
• As with all gardening products, the best results are achieved when not used in direct sunlight on a hot day, it's best to spray early evening or morning.
• Rain will not wash it off or reduce its effectiveness as the plants reaction to this product is immediate.
• The extracts are suspended in the bottle and in water when mixed. Commercial application is mechanically agitated, so it is important you shake the concentrate before mixing with water and shake your sprayer before and during application.

Frequently asked questions:

Q: Does it work on all plants?
A: Yes. It is the same mix and method for all plants, as it activates the receptor cells which are on the leaves of all plants.

Q: Can I mix it with other products?
A: No. Nature's Curator is not absorbed by the plant and therefore works differently to all other foliar sprays. For best results, spray Nature's Curator separately.

Q: How often should I spray?
A: To start we suggest weekly spraying to really activate the health & growth system and for you to see a rapid change in the plants vigour. Once the plant has been activated, you can cut back to spraying only when you think it needs added protection from environmental stress such as transplant shock, climate changes or improved disease/pest resistence.

Q: Is it OK for bees?
A: Nature's Curator is non-toxic and completely natural, so it poses no risk to any insect. If a particluar insect, such as bees, butterflies or ladybugs, are beneficial to the plant, Nature's Curator improves the plants ability to attract them. If the plant needs to discourage insects, Nature's Curator will help it do this better.

Q: Will it get rid of Aphids?
A: Nature's Curator is not a pesticide, however it does improve the plants own natural ability to deter pests, prevent damage and assist repair. For the best results, treat any infestation in the normal manner and also spray with Nature's Curator to help the plant recover and improve it's own repelent capabilities.

Q: Does it replace the need to fertilize?
A: Nature's Curator does not add any nutirents to the growing environment, it does however improve the plants capacity to absorb them and put them to the best use. An example of this is the golf course trials where plants have to cope for themselves.

Q: Do I need to spray the whole of my fruit tree?
A: A light mist over the leaves is the best way to apply however, because the immune system is linked, you can spray only part of the trees leaves and it will activate the immune system inside the tree.

Q: Should I spray it on the soil?
A: Nature's Curator is meant to interact with the receptor cells on the leaf, so for best results you should target the foliage of the plant.
