Gardening Tips and Tricks: Cultivating Green Success

  1. Proper Application of XtraGrow™
  • NO NEED  to Measure Carefully: Unlike other fertilizers XtraGrow™ can never harm your plants. So feel free to grab a handful and toss! XtraGrow™ is FOOD not Fertilizer.
  • Even Distribution: For the most efficient use,  Sprinkle XtraGrow™ evenly around the “drip edge” of plants. (The area where a light rain will naturally soak the ground). This is the area that most plants have the fine roots that seek the high quality nutrition that XtraGrow™ provides.
  • Water After Application: The quality of your water matters! Rain water, well water, spring water are all better than “tap water”. If you must use a municipal water source please be sure to get a chlorine filter. Water the soil thoroughly after applying XtraGrow™. This helps activate the nutrients to make them accessible to the plants.
  1. Seasonal Gardening Strategies

Spring:

  • Prep Your Soil: Before planting, mix XtraGrow™ into the soil. It jump-starts nutrient availability for spring blooms.
  • Feed Bulbs: For flowering bulbs, apply XtraGrow™ during planting to encourage robust growth.

Summer:

  • Frequent Watering: In hot weather, water your plants consistently. XtraGrow™ helps retain moisture, but regular watering is essential. XtraGrow™ helps plants grow significantly faster and larger so they can use more water than you might expect.
  • Boost Blooms: Apply XtraGrow to flowering plants mid-summer for vibrant blooms. There is no time that you can’t apply XtraGrow™. XtraGrow™ is FOOD not Fertilizer so the plants are not forced to uptake nutrition, rather they have the choice to uptake nutrition when they choose to seek the resource!

Fall:

  • Fall Cleanup: After harvest, add XtraGrow™ to the soil. It replenishes nutrients and prepares your garden for winter.
  • Lawn Love: XtraGrow™ keeps your lawn lush. Apply it before winter to strengthen grass roots. Just be careful, a little goes a long way… unless you enjoy mowing several times per week!
  1. Maximizing Plant Growth
  • Companion Planting: Pair XtraGrow™ with companion plants that benefit each other. For example, basil near tomatoes or marigolds near roses.
  • Mulch Magic: Mulch with organic materials (like straw or wood chips). It conserves moisture and prevents weeds.
  • Regular Inspections: Check for pests, diseases, and nutrient deficiencies. XtraGrow™ supports plant health, but vigilance is key.

Remember, gardening is both science and art. Experiment, observe, and enjoy the journey! Happy gardening! 🌼🌿
