How many times a year do I need to use a natural fertilizer vs. a synthetic-chemical-based fertilizer?
For the highest quality results, we recommend that for the first three years, you apply product 4-5 times annually. After that initial period, you can reduce feedings to two (2) applications per year to maintain your turf, farm plot, or garden. With synthetics application rates will begin with 5-6 per year. As the years go by application rates will increase or the amount applied will increase to get the same effect year after year. This causes more damage to the soil and increases the likely-hood of diseases and fungus.
For the highest quality results, we recommend that for the first four (4) years, you apply product four (4) times annually. After that initial period, you can reduce feedings to three (3) times per year to maintain your turf, farm plot, or garden. If fewer feedings are used than are recommended, they will still be beneficial to the plants, soil, and microorganisms. However, you might simply not have as lush a lawn or as productive a garden.
