Multi-Mix Blended Manure
Three manures. Not near the natives.
GO Organics Multi-Mix is a blend of matured sheep, cow and chicken manure, pulverised so it spreads cleanly, in 30 litre bags. The pack describes it as rich in humus, nitrogen, phosphate and potassium — which is the reason it is the strong one, and the reason it must be kept away from azaleas, camellias, ferns and Australian natives.

Real stock, not a swatch. Blended products vary a little batch to batch, so treat these as a guide rather than an exact colour match.

What Multi-Mix Blended Manure suits
What can you use Multi-Mix Blended Manure for?
Vegetable gardens and raised beds
A worked-out veggie bed is the job this is best at. Vegetables are hungry, they are not fussy about phosphate, and the chicken component gives them the nitrogen they want.
Roses and hungry flowering shrubs
Exotic flowering plants take a strong feed happily. Spread out from the stem and water it in well.
Fruit trees
Out to the drip line rather than against the trunk. Fruit trees feed from the outer roots and carrying a crop takes a lot out of them.
Building beds up in sand
The humus is what changes sandy ground. Structure, aeration and water penetration all improve, and those stay improved after the feed is gone.
How many bags?
Thirty litres, about 1.2 square metres
Manure goes on thin — about 25mm worked into the surface — so a 30 litre bag covers roughly 1.2 square metres. With a strong blend that restraint matters more, not less.
The pack does not print an application rate, so this is the arithmetic of the volume at that depth rather than a manufacturer figure.
| Job | Bags | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| A veggie bed, 2m x 1m | 2 bags | The job it is best at. Work it through the top and water in. |
| Around a fruit tree | 1 bag | Spread out to the drip line, never banked against the trunk. |
| A native garden | None | Wrong product. Ask us for a native plant food instead. |
Not for azaleas, camellias, ferns or Australian natives — the blend is rich in phosphate. And it contains micro-organisms: gloves, keep it moist, wash your hands afterwards.
Multi-Mix Blended Manure in Perth
Phosphate and Western Australian natives
Banksias, grevilleas, hakeas and their relatives evolved on some of the most phosphorus-poor soil on earth, and they take up phosphate so efficiently that a normal garden dose poisons them. The symptoms show up weeks later as blackened leaf tips and dieback, by which point the cause is easy to miss.
That is why the caution on this bag is worth more than the usual small print. If your garden is a mix of exotics and natives — which describes a great many Perth gardens — feed the exotics with this and keep a native food for the rest. We stock both, and it is a two minute conversation at the counter.
Why Multi-Mix Blended Manure
Why choose Multi-Mix Blended Manure?
Three manures, one bag
Sheep, cow and chicken. The feed is broader than any single manure gives you, and it comes on quickly and then keeps going.
Pulverised, so it spreads cleanly
Nothing to break up by hand and nothing left sitting in lumps on the surface. On a bed or a lawn that is the difference between a feed and a mess.
It changes how sand handles water
More humus means better structure and aeration, and water that penetrates instead of running off. Less of your watering ends up in the street.
Real nitrogen for a hungry bed
The chicken component is what makes this the strong one. Where a gentle manure has stopped making a difference, this still will.

Using Multi-Mix Blended Manure
How to use Multi-Mix Blended Manure
Check what is planted there first
This is the one product on this page where the plant decides. Azaleas, camellias, ferns and Australian natives get something else — ask us for a native plant food and we will sort you out.
Spread evenly, keep it off the stems
Work it into the top of the soil and keep it clear of trunks and stems. A strong manure banked against a stem is how a healthy plant gets damaged.
Water it in well
Straight after spreading, and more thoroughly than you would a gentle manure. It moves the nutrient down to the roots and away from the surface.
Do not overdo it
Thirty litres covers about 1.2 square metres at the right depth. Twice as much is not twice the feed, it is a bed that has to be flushed.
When to choose something else
When it is the wrong product
- NOT for azaleas, camellias, ferns or Australian native plants. The bag itself describes the blend as rich in phosphate, and phosphate is what kills banksias, grevilleas and their relatives. Ask us for a native plant food instead.
- It is the strong one. Around seedlings and young plants, the sheep manure is the safer choice.
- It is a feed, not a soil. It goes on or through a bed; it does not fill one.
- This product contains micro-organisms. Wear gloves, keep it moist while you handle it, wear a mask if it is dusty, and wash your hands afterwards.
