Sorry for my mistake, Rod,  I meant Fermented nettle tea, although when I looked up the translation  on the net, I found it as nettle purine.

Well I hope now that it is clear what I mean, Anybody could tell me if it is good for iris plants its use

Thanks again

I looked this one up. I don't think it's "purine" as in the class of chemicals, rather it's nettle "tea" or in french, "purin d'ortie". "Purin" translates as "manure" or "slurry" or maybe "puree". It's actually fermented nettle tea.

What does it say on package? Is that is name of product?

Nettle, in a drink, is used to remove purines and uric acid in people
suffering from gout.

Purines are primarily found in meats, (Very low in plant products) and
are used as dietary supplements in various forms.

Hi Guys, could anybody tell me who has tried nettle purine as a
pesticide and fertilizer if it is good for all irises or only,
some of them.
I would want to use it because it is natural, easy and cheap or at
least for me here in my area on the spanish atlantic coast where you
can find meadows of nettles in the countryside
Thanks
