Seed Starter Blend for New Year Celebrations
In the new year, gardeners are looking for ways to make their gardens more eco-friendly and sustainable. One solution is to use organic fertilizers and compost, such as the Organic Concentrated Compost - 18 lbs and All-Purpose Organic Fertilizer 5-3-4, which are now available for purchase.
These products are not only eco-friendly and safe for the environment but are also suitable for various types of plants. The Organic Concentrated Compost - 18 lbs improves soil structure and water retention, making it ideal for a range of plant species. The All-Purpose Organic Fertilizer 5-3-4 provides essential nutrients for plant growth, promoting healthy foliage and growth.
These fertilizers can be used in both the Growing Wishes Organic Herb Garden and Growing Wishes Flower Garden kits. The Organic Herb Garden is a kit designed for growing herbs organically, while the Flower Garden is a kit for growing flowers organically. Both kits include seedlings and organic soil, making it easy for gardeners to get started.
For those looking to grow flowers, a well-balanced organic fertilizer like compost, bone meal, and manure is recommended. These fertilizers provide a broad spectrum of nutrients slowly released through microbial activity, improving soil health and flower growth over time. Organic sources like bone meal are excellent for phosphorus, which supports flowering, while compost and manure add a wide range of nutrients and improve soil structure.
Additional organic fertilizers effective for flowers include comfrey or nettle tea and liquid seaweed feeds. These homemade liquid feeds provide a nutrient boost and can be applied periodically during flowering. Liquid seaweed feeds are rich in micronutrients and growth stimulants, beneficial for flowering plants like roses and lilies.
Certified organic products listed by organizations like OMRI provide trusted options to ensure quality and sustainability. So, whether you're looking to start a new garden or take your existing garden to the next level, consider using organic fertilizers and compost for a greener and more sustainable 2023.
