For Plants
Recovery
For the plant that has just been moved, divided, or disturbed — a steadying hand through the shock, and a gentle return to vigorous growth.
A transplant is a kind of crisis. When you lift a plant from its bed, repot it, divide a clump, or simply handle it roughly, you tear fine feeder roots, break the quiet conversation between root and soil, and ask the plant to drink and stand upright before it has the plumbing to do either. The leaves wilt, growth stalls, and the plant sits in a sulk that can last days or weeks. Recovery is built for exactly that window — the disturbed, freshly-moved plant that needs to settle, hold its water, defend its open wounds, and find its feet again.
Used as a dilute foliar feed or soil drench, Recovery brings five convergent botanicals to bear on the root zone and the leaf at once. It is not a fertilizer and it is not a rescue gimmick — it is a steadying botanical feed that supports the plant's own recovery machinery: the structural integrity of new root tissue, the moisture-holding and mineral balance the plant leans on while its roots regrow, and the resilience it needs to shrug off the oxidative and microbial stress that crowds in around fresh wounds and disturbed soil.
Think of it as the difference between a plant that limps through transplant and one that barely notices it. The aim is a short shock, a quick re-rooting, and an early return to the steady, vigorous push of new growth — so the move becomes a pause rather than a setback.
It belongs to the GGG Plants line: the same lineage of plant wisdom we carry for people and animals, turned toward the garden bed, the propagation tray, and the pot on the windowsill.
For Plants
Small-batch. Dual-extracted where it matters. Made by hand.
How to take it
Dilute 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water. Foliar feed at the lighter rate, or soil drench at the fuller rate, about once a month or every other feeding.
What you get
What this formula gives you
Eases plants through transplant, repotting, and division shock so the setback is short and the rebound is quick
Supports the structural integrity of new root and shoot tissue rather than forcing soft, unsupported top growth
Helps the root zone hold moisture and mineral balance through the vulnerable days after a move, drawing on sea moss's water-binding polysaccharides
Supports a clean, resilient root environment around fresh wounds and freshly disturbed soil
Builds the plant's own stress resilience so it settles instead of sulking
Works as either a foliar feed or a soil drench, fitting whatever the plant in front of you needs
How it works
The science of Recovery
Not buzzwords — the actual biology of the plants in this formula: their compounds, the targets those compounds are measured to engage, and the systems they nourish.
The work of recovery is, at bottom, the work of regrowing roots and protecting them while they form. Atlantic Irish sea moss is the structural backbone of this formula. It is dense in sulfated polysaccharides — galactose and anhydrogalactose chains, including galactose-6-sulfate — the same gel-forming, water-binding carbohydrates that make sea moss a hydrocolloid. In the root zone these act as a moisture buffer and a soil conditioner, holding water around stressed roots and feeding the mineral matrix the plant draws on while its feeder roots are too few to keep up. Sea moss carries a broad spectrum of minerals as building blocks, supporting the structural integrity of new tissue rather than force-feeding a flush of soft top growth the plant cannot yet support.
Reishi and rhodiola bring the resilience current. Reishi's ganoderic acids and its rich polysaccharide fraction are associated with antioxidant activity and microbial defense — relevant to a disturbed root system sitting in freshly opened soil. Rhodiola contributes salidroside and the rosavins, the adaptogenic compounds that define it; in measured screens salidroside touches oxidative-stress-related enzymes, the kind of cellular housekeeping a plant under transplant stress relies on to settle. Together they support the plant's capacity to hold steady through the disturbance instead of spiraling into a long sulk.
Ginger and licorice complete the picture at the soil interface. Ginger's gingerols are warming, circulation-friendly aromatics with a long record of antimicrobial and antifungal character — useful around the damp, vulnerable root zone of a fresh transplant where soil-borne opportunists gather. Licorice contributes glycyrrhizin and 18-beta-glycyrrhetinic acid, surfactant-like saponins that help a dilute drench wet and spread evenly and that carry their own antimicrobial reputation. None of this treats a plant disease — it is structure and function: a feed that supports moisture balance, tissue integrity, and a clean, resilient root zone while the plant does the regrowing itself.

In practice
Who it’s for, and how to use it
Who it’s for
For any gardener, grower, or houseplant keeper in the act of moving plants — transplanting seedlings into the bed, potting up or repotting, dividing perennials, taking and settling cuttings, or nursing a plant that has been knocked about, root-disturbed, or stressed by handling. Reach for it at the moment of the move and through the recovery window that follows, on anything from a propagation tray to a mature specimen in a large pot.
How to use it
Dilute 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water. Use the lighter rate as a foliar feed, misting the leaves, or the fuller rate as a soil drench poured into the root zone. Apply about once a month, or on every other feeding, beginning at the time of transplant and continuing through the recovery window. As with any dilute botanical feed, start at the lighter rate on tender seedlings and young plants and build up as they establish.
