How to Use

Use Any Way You Want!

Other fertilizers will tell you exactly how much to use and when, usually followed by warnings to not use too much or risk killing your plants. Not us! We here at WriggleBrew know how busy life can get. So we did away with the fertilizer schedules, NPK worries, and burn risks to make fertilizing as easy and effective as possible. Whether you want to dump it all once and never worry again or stretch your bottle for months, whatever way you can is the best way to do it.

Pour for Growth

To apply WriggleBrew: Growth & Rescue shake well and dilute in water. Spray or pour at the base of the plant to promote growth.

For best results, we recommend using 1/2 tablespoon of Growth & Rescue per cup of water in your mix. Safe and recommended to apply every time you water your plants.

For containers and beds, use about 2 & 1/2 tablespoons of full-strength Growth & Rescue per square foot of plant monthly. Pour directly at the base of each plant to ensure optimal growth and protection.


Spray for Rescue

If your plants are showing signs of distress, we recommend spraying the plant directly at full-strength.

Signs of distress include, but are not limited to:

  • Yellowing

  • Holes

  • Wilting

  • White specks

  • Brown Spots

Shake well and spray the plant until leaves and soil around the base of plant are visibly misted.

How it Started

One day, our future CEO Sam Baker went fishing with his grandfather at one of their favorite ponds, only to find it reeking and full of dead fish, poisoned by fertilizer runoff. The devastation stuck with him.

Sam brought the issue to his friend and research partner at UCF, Gabe DeGaglia. Together, they began researching eco-friendly fertilizers. Most were smelly, ineffective, or hard to use; so they set out to make something better.

After years of trial and error, they created WriggleBrew: Growth & Rescue! A clean, low-odor, organic fertilizer that’s safe for people, pets, and wildlife, and just as effective as chemical alternatives.

Today, Sam and Gabe run a family-and-friends business, working to protect the planet, one bottle at a time.
