🪴 Old Cobblers Farm Carnivorous Plant Food – 1-1-1 Formula for Safe, Gentle Feeding & Balanced Growth

Support your carnivorous plants without disrupting their natural nutrient-capturing systems with Old Cobblers Farm Carnivorous Plant Food (1-1-1 NPK) — a low-strength, balanced formula crafted specifically for sensitive species like Venus flytraps, pitcher plants, sundews, and butterworts. This gentle blend provides just enough supplemental nutrition to support healthy growth without burning roots or interfering with trapping behavior.

Perfect for terrariums, bog gardens, indoor collections, and greenhouses where soil nutrients are naturally minimal.

1% Nitrogen, 1% Phosphorus, and 1% Potassium offer mild nourishment that won’t overwhelm delicate carnivorous species.

🪰 Complements Natural Feeding
Designed to be used alongside insect feeding — not as a replacement — for overall plant health and vigor.

🫙 Low-Salt, Non-Toxic Formula
Free of urea, harsh salts, and additives that can damage or kill carnivorous plants.

📏 Precise Application Control
Suitable for foliar feeding or soil application in ultra-small amounts.

🪴 Perfect For:

Venus Flytrap (Dionaea muscipula)
Pitcher Plants (Sarracenia, Nepenthes, Cephalotus)

Cobra Lilies (Darlingtonia californica)
Tropical Carnivorous Species in Terrariums or Greenhouses

🧪 How to Use:

Foliar Feeding (Preferred):

  • Dilute ¼ teaspoon in 1 quart of distilled water. Mist lightly onto foliage every 2–4 weeks during active growth.

Soil Feeding (Optional):

  • Apply 1–2 drops near the base of the plant every 4–6 weeks if not regularly catching insects. Avoid overfeeding.
