Green Manure – Biofumigation Mix seeds (NOT to WA & TAS)
(Untreated, Chemical-Free)
Selection from 100g to 4kg Seeds
Sowing rate: 15kg/ha OR 1.5kg/1000sqm
Green Manure – BioFume Mix is a speciality blend mix of radish and mustard.
- Effective organic control to manage root-knot nematodes, a menacing pest!
- Quickly cover the soil
- Erosion Protection
- It can act as green manure too
Biofumigation will significantly reduce the number of root-knot nematodes in the soil. It involves growing green manure of speciality mustard greens & radish and digging it into the soil. Once your regular crop has been cleared, loosen the soil, broadcast the seed over the surface, then rake and water it in, keeping the soil moist so that the seed can germinate quickly. Water regularly. Let the plants mature, then dig them into the soil just before they develop flower stems (so they are still soft and sappy). It would help if you continued to keep the soil moist so that the crop decomposes quickly. As the mustard & radish plants break down, they release isothiocyanates, a natural biofumigant that is toxic to root-knot nematodes.
If you have ever going trouble with these root-knot nematodes, it is a good idea to consider making biofumigation a regular part of your crop rotation system by using this mixture.

WA order dispatch time:
WA orders are packed once a week on Wednesday and shipped out on Thursday. To ensure that your orders are processed and shipped out each Thursday, please place them before midnight (AEDT - Sydney time) on Tuesday. This applies no matter whether Express Post service is chosen for the order.
WA orders go to the Quarantine WA office at Perth Airport for inspection before being sent to your shipping address by the Quarantine Officers. Your tracking number will be activated once the inspection is complete, which may take up to 10 business days after we have packed and dispatched your order.
The tracking number will stay in a 'Pending' status until Quarantine Officers have inspected your shipment at Perth Airport.
Depending on the postal service you pay for the order, it will generally take an additional 1 to 5 business days for your shipment to arrive from Perth Airport to your address within WA. However, please note that delays beyond our control may occasionally occur.
Signature on delivery: An additional $3.95 applies if you require a signature on delivery service. If you haven't requested a signature, the postie or courier driver will check for a safe place or letterbox (if it fits) to leave your item. They may take it to the Post Office or nearest collection point for mail order collection if a safe place can't be found.
No Discount on Shipping charges: Our special discount event means seeds are available at discounted prices. However, postage costs remain the same, i.e. there won't be any discount on the postage costs - so check out our postage rate table to find out exactly how much it will cost before you stock up on your favourites!
You shall receive an email notification with a tracking number as soon as your order has been dispatched. We dispatch ALL seed orders via Australia Post or Courier Service with a tracking for a peace of mind.
