Woo hoo!!!
Sunday, June 27th, 2010Right now over 32% of our customers are subscribing to our fertilizer service - which is excellent!!! The good news is that it has allowed us to get some interesting information that I would like to share with you. Did you know that almost 70% of your plants are under fertilized! So if you want some good tomatoes this year - you might think about fertilizing a bit more often.
Over fertilizing isn’t such a problem - less than 10% of plants are actually over fertilized.
One of the key elements that we have noticed is the ability of plants to absorb fertilizer. Accessibility is ruled by moisture and pH. Right now if you need a pH reading we recommend you use a third party test device.
So… if you look at what changes in your soil here goes:
1) moisture - changes rapidly.
2) Fertilizer - Changes about every three weeks
3) pH probably once or twice a year it needs to be modified.
Hope that helps.
