Even if you are lucky enough to have inherited great garden soil, your plants absorb nutrients as they grow and leave the soil less fertile. By fertilizing, you ensure that your plants have the proper nutrients to flourish, day in and day out, year after year. I suspect it s because they re confused by the what, when and why of it all. Organic Plants use nutrients at different rates and at different times during the growing season. For best results, ensure that the nutrients are available on a consistent basis, when your plants need them.
Organic fertilizers are like an insurance policy.
Most contain rock powders and complex proteins that are not very water-soluble. This means organic fertilizers persist in the soil for many months or even years. They become part of the soil, improving its texture and long-term fertility. These organisms convert soil minerals into available nutrients that can be absorbed by plant roots. These organisms also improve the texture of the soil by creating passageways for air and water and aggregating soil particles into crumbs.
