WHY USE OUR SUMMER BLEND?
Florida’s different. So is it’s soil. That’s why we’ve formulated our fertilizer specifically for Florida dirt.
If the wrong kind of fertilizer is applied during the wrong time of year, potential environmental toxins can wash off the landscape and flow into Florida’s bays and streams. This can lead to the harmful algal blooms that cause red tide, as well as other environmental issues.
In order to safeguard our coastal ecosystem, many Florida counties prohibit the use of fertilizers containing nitrogen and phosphorus between June 1 and September 30.
Our Summer Blend is uniquely designed without nitrogen and phosphorus and with more ecosafe nutrients such as potassium, manganese, magnesium, boron, and iron, making it perfect for summertime fertilizing.
