Dr Forest's Bio-Plant Soap Concentrate is a natural plant wash made from selected oils to clean plants. It includes British cold-pressed rapeseed oil, organic castor oil, organic coconut oil, and insect larvae oil, forming a stable lather for cleaning plant leaves. In contrast to products using lower-grade, chemically processed oils, this handcrafted formula focuses on plant and environmental considerations. Suitable for gardeners preferring a natural approach, the concentrate removes dust, dirt, debris, and surface impurities through weekly or biweekly use, aiding healthy growth in indoor or outdoor settings.

Reasons to Use a Plant Soap

Leaves can accumulate dust, dirt, and debris, which may reduce sunlight access and affect growth. Dr Forest's Bio-Plant Soap Concentrate cleans foliage gently, supporting photosynthesis and nutrient uptake. Applied regularly, it helps maintain plants without synthetic additives, offering a practical option for those mindful of environmental impact.
