About this product
HCT — Liquid Compost is a 100% South African chitosan-derived bio-stimulant, natural pest control and plant immune booster. It works through enzyme activation within plants — not through chemical pressure — making it non-toxic to bees, birds and amphibians with no Maximum Residue Limit.
The 5 Litre size is the most popular pack with commercial growers running first-season programs. It covers 5–10 hectares at standard row-crop application rates and offers a better per-litre price than the 1 L trial pack while staying easy to handle on smaller operations.
