The pod

Organic plant food in a cellulose shell

Drop one in, water as normal. The shell dissolves in 30 to 90 seconds and the compartments inside release in stages, feeding the roots for 4 to 6 weeks. Nothing is left in the soil.

  • Pre-measured, dosed by plant size
  • Soil microbes, sea kelp, humic acid, plant proteins, balanced nutrients
  • No synthetic fertilizers, no plastic

Identify, diagnose, schedule

Point your camera at any plant. The app names it, writes its care guide, spots pests and disease, and reminds you when to water and when the next pod is due.

  • Works in your phone's browser, free

  • Honest about what it cannot fix
How it works

Three steps. No mess. No measuring.

1 Drop

Place a pod

One pod per plant, pushed just under the soil near the roots. Nothing to scoop, weigh or dilute.

The cellulose shell dissolves in 30 to 90 seconds, right where the roots are.

A healthy, thriving plant

Forget it for a month or so

Compartments inside release in stages, so a pod feeds for 4 to 6 weeks: about six for a small plant, five for a medium one, and a large plant takes two pods every four weeks. The app reminds you when the next pod is due.

Why BioPod

Everything the fertilizer aisle gets wrong, fixed in one pod

Houseplants on a bright windowsill
Houseplants, balcony pots, window boxes, planters.

Pre-measured, nothing to guess

Measuring cups, dosing caps and ratios written for people managing acres are how plants get burnt, or never get fed at all. A pod is one dose, every time.

0

plastic left in your soil

A cellulose shell and a paper pouch. The bottle and the coated beads are what we replaced.

4-6

weeks per pod

Feed, then forget it until the app reminds you.

What is inside

Organic inputs, no synthetic fertilizers. Beneficial soil microbes, the bacteria and fungi of healthy soil. Sea kelp and humic acid, two of the oldest soil amendments there are. Plant proteins for slow-release nitrogen, a balanced blend of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, and the essential micronutrients plants need in small amounts, including calcium. What each one does.

Built by a scientist

BioPod was founded by an environmental scientist who got tired of plastic bottles of mostly water. Her story.

Before you reserve

We email every reservation the shipping date as soon as the batch is scheduled, and nothing is charged before then. If the date does not suit you, you simply do not pay.
A pod lasts 4 to 6 weeks: about six for a small plant, five for a medium one. A large indoor plant takes two pods every four weeks. A 12-pack is about a year of feeding for one small plant.
No. The pods work on their own. The app just makes it hard to forget, and it is free with or without a pack.
Water-soluble cellulose paper. It is not plastic film and it is not PVA. It dissolves into the soil in 30 to 90 seconds when you water and leaves nothing behind.
As with any plant food, store it away from pets and children, and keep pets from digging in a freshly fed pot.
