Activ8mate is a premium liquid lawn and garden fertiliser that blends the benefits of organic ingredients with traditional nutrient boosters. Designed for homeowners, landscapers, and turf professionals, this all-in-one fertiliser and soil inoculant nourishes turf, plants, trees, and soil biology. Formulated to enhance both plant health and soil vitality, Activ8mate supports lush, green growth and long-term soil health, making it ideal for Australian lawns like buffalo, kikuyu, and couch, as well as edible gardens and ornamental beds.
Activ8mate is more than just a fertiliser. It’s a complete soil and plant health solution made from fish, seaweed, blood & bone, and powerful natural acids that feed your plants above and below the soil. It's pefect for:
Want a lawn that feels soft underfoot and looks like it belongs in a magazine?
Make your garden explode with life.
Tough enough for real farming. Gentle enough for the soil.
Activ8mate is a combined nutrient input and biological soil amendment designed to improve nutrient use efficiency (NUE), soil structure, and rhizosphere activity. It stimulates microbial processes responsible for nutrient cycling and mineralisation, enhancing root–microbe interactions within the rhizosphere. This results in improved nutrient availability through microbial conversion and chelation, while also supporting nutrient retention via better soil structure and cation exchange interactions.
In addition, Activ8mate contributes to improved soil aggregation, aeration, and water-holding capacity, while assisting in buffering salts and maintaining balanced root zone conditions. The overall effect is stronger root development, more consistent plant growth, and improved resilience to environmental stresses. Suitable for use in fertigation, foliar, and soil-based programs, Activ8mate integrates well with conventional fertiliser inputs, with performance influenced by soil type and growing conditions.

| Method | Details |
|---|---|
Watering Can |
10‐30ml per 9 litres of water. |
Hose‐on Bottle or sprayer |
mix the minimum amount of water with the product/s to allow you to cover the required area/s. For example, for my front yard, using an old weed n feed hose‐on bottle I add 100ml of each Seaweed Secrets, Activ8mate, and Nature's Soil Wetter, then top up with enough water to allow you to evenly cover it using the hose‐on bottle (I add about 600ml water), then evenly hose‐on. |
Hortex/Pressure/Knapsack Sprayer |
You need about 15 litres (a little more or less won’t hurt) of water to be applied per 100sqm, so take that into consideration when applying. If you have a smaller sprayer, either do several smaller applications (i.e., covering 50sqm at a time and repeat until the entire area is covered), or over a larger area spray with the required amount and if you haven’t used 15 litres/100sqm, give a light water‐in. If using a Hortex sprayer on setting 2 without the restrictor, you shouldn’t need to add water, but if you do, just add as little amount to cover the required area. |

First time owning lawn. Gave the team at plant doctor a ring and they supplied me with a wealth of information. Products turned up quickly.
Will definitely be getting more 8 weeks difference been using stimulizer, activ8mate, soil wetter, seaweed secrets and champion fertiliser. Was super fast delivery.
Only have great things to say about Plant Doctor. Organic products and a competitive price, fast shipping and easy to contact with questions. Have had great results with the special mix for lawns, and my plants (indoor and outdoor) love the seaweed secrets. I am excited to test out some of the animal products soon!
