Long-Term Nutrition, Zero Hassle: Slow Release Plant Food for Every Setup

If you want healthier plants without constant upkeep, our slow release plant food is your new secret weapon. Designed by Sybotanica under the SYBASupport line, this collection offers targeted nutrition for orchids, cacti, and tropical plants—all in an easy, “set & forget” format that feeds your plants for weeks or even months at a time. Simply apply once, and let the concentrated formula do the rest.

Slow release plant food delivers reliable, low-effort feeding that works in harmony with your plant’s rhythm. Whether you’re growing in living soil or a mineral substrate, our range includes both BIO and mineral-compatible options. Each version is eco-friendly plant food, free of harsh chemicals, and optimized for deep, sustained nutrition. It’s not just easier—it’s better for your plants, your time, and your peace of mind.

Why Slow Release Feeding Works Wonders

Set It and Forget It

Busy plant parent? Our slow plant food options are made for you. These nutrient-rich pellets and granules release slowly over time, giving your plants a consistent supply of what they need without requiring weekly applications. Just mix it into the soil or substrate and you’re done. Whether you’re off on holiday or managing a large plant collection, this is the ultimate low-maintenance solution that still delivers high-performance results.

Built for Both Soil and Substrate

The SYBASupport slow release plant food range includes two specialized formats:

  • BIO Slow Release: Perfect for soil-based plants. These organic pellets break down naturally to support soil health while feeding your plant.
  • Regular Slow Release: Ideal for mineral-based systems like our SYBAStones. These non-organic granules deliver consistent nutrients without disrupting the balance of your mineral mix.

This dual-approach means no matter how you grow—traditional potting mixes or semi-hydroponic systems—we’ve got a long-term solution tailored for your setup.

Supercharged for Specific Plant Families

For Orchids: Gentle Support Over Time

Orchids need subtle, sustained feeding to promote blooms and strong (aerial) roots. Our slow release options ensure they receive just enough nutrients at the right time, avoiding stress or overfeeding. Choose Orchid BIO Slow Release for bark-based media or Regular Slow Release for mineral blends and hydro mixes.

For Cacti: Nutrient-Smart, Not Overdone

Cacti prefer fewer nutrients but still need support—especially during active growth seasons. Our formulas are low in nitrogen and rich in potassium, delivering slow, targeted feeding without overwhelming the plant’s needs. Both Cacti BIO Slow Release and mineral options are available to match your preferred growing medium.

For Tropicals: Long-Term Fuel for Fast Growers

Tropical plants like Monstera, Philodendron, and Alocasia thrive with steady, balanced nutrition. Our Tropical BIO Slow Release blends keep them well-fed without risking burn or overfeeding. These super concentrated formulas are packed with full-spectrum nutrients to fuel vibrant leaves, strong roots, and lush growth—no matter which mix you're using.

FAQ's

Can I combine different fertilisers?

We do not recommend mixing any of the SYBASupport Line fertilisers. Combining with Worm Castings & Lava gravel is possible

If using SYBASoil, we recommend waiting until the nutrients in SYBASoil have run out (~6 months after repotting)

Will SYBASupport save my dying plant?

If a plant isn’t doing well, adding fertiliser is like giving candy to someone with a stomach ache—it might make things worse.

First, check what’s wrong: too much water, not enough light, or pests. Fix those problems before feeding it.

If lack of nutrients is the problem, your plant might look pale, grow slower, or have yellowing leaves, especially the older leaves.

That’s when fertiliser can help—but always use the right type and amount to avoid overfeeding!

What's the difference between BIO & Mineral fertilisers?

Mineral fertilisers are like fast food for plants—quick and easy but can run out fast.

Organic fertilisers are like healthy home-cooked meals—slower to work, but they make the soil better over time.

*For mineral substrates like SYBAHydro, we havent been able to find a suited bio fertiliser, that's why we sell the mineral fertilisers

What's the difference between Liquid & Slow release fertilisers?

Liquid fertilisers are like a quick drink for your plants—they get nutrients fast but need more refills.

Slow-release fertilisers are like a snack that keeps unwrapping itself, feeding your plants bit by bit over time.
