Suståne 3-7-4 is a granulated organic fertilizer that is rich in organic phosphorus and provides all of the soil building qualities of a concentrated compost.
Rapid vegetative establishment for organic agriculture and erosion control, highway roadside, wetlands and burn, mine site reclamation, and oil/gas site remediation.
Description
Suståne 3-7-4 Natural Organic is a granulated organic fertilizer made from nutrient-rich, concentrated compost. Suståne replenishes the soil with a rich supply of humus (stabilized organic matter) and all of the essential nutrients required for quality growth. Suståne 3-7-4 provides a concentrated package of plant macro and micronutrients and organic substances and beneficial microbiology derived from biologically stable compost.
Recommended Use:
For use in the production of certified organic crops, as a general soil builder, crop starter fertilizer, organic phosphorus source, erosion control, and remediation. In-row or broadcast, quick ground cover minimizes soil erosion and gets crops off to a fast start. Ideal for reclamation, revegetation and building of disturbed or depleted soils, native plant establishment, construction site vegetation, beach restoration, burn area reestablishment, and mine site reclamation.
