Know before you buy
The 2.5-0-2.5 N-K formula is specifically designed for soils that are already rich in phosphorus or for gardeners who want to avoid phosphorus runoff. It focuses on providing nitrogen and potassium to support vegetative growth and overall plant health without adding unnecessary phosphorus.
Triacontanol is a natural growth stimulant found in alfalfa that helps increase photosynthesis and nutrient uptake. This leads to more vigorous growth, stronger root systems, and more abundant blooms.
Yes, this fertilizer is safe for all plants, including houseplants. Because it is a finely ground meal, it is easy to incorporate into potting soil or apply as a top dressing.
No, this is a 100% organic product that carries no risk of burning your plants when applied according to the label instructions. It provides a gentle, slow-release nutrient source that is safe for both delicate flowers and established shrubs.
You can work the meal directly into the soil before planting, use it as a top dressing around the base of established plants, or brew it into an 'alfalfa tea' for liquid application. Since it is not water-soluble, brewing it as a tea requires steeping and straining before use.
The fertilizer provides a combination of quick-release benefits and sustained feeding that lasts for 4 to 8 weeks. While the nutrients are released over that period, the organic matter continues to improve soil structure and microbial activity for up to 8 months.
