• Vegetable Gardens: To prepare new gardens, apply 3-6 lbs per 100 square feet and thoroughly mix into the top 3″ of soil. For new transplants, add 1-2 tbsp per hole, mix into soil and water in well. To feed established plants, side dress 2-4 oz, depending on plant size and desired growth rate, once each month during the growing season.
• Containers: For new plantings, add 1-2 tbsp per gallon of soil and mix thoroughly OR add 5-10 lbs per cubic yard. For established plants, lightly mix 1-2 tbsp per gallon into the soil surface once each month during the growing season.
• Trees & Shrubs: Spread 1 lb per 1″ of trunk diameter around the base outwards to the drip line, mix into soil surface and water in well. For new trees, prepare transplant hole and mix 1-2 cups with the backfill soil. Use amended soil to fill in around the new tree and water in well.
• Row Crops/Acreage: Apply 750-1,000 lbs per acre depending on specific crop needs or required pounds of actual nitrogen per acre.

• Enhances Leaf Development: Stimulates lush foliage growth, maximizing sunlight absorption and energy production
• Improves Soil Fertility: Enriches soil with essential nutrients to support diverse plant growth and long-term soil health.
• Promotes Healthy Plant Growth: Enhances chlorophyll production for improved photosynthesis and overall plant vigor.

Q: Why Nitrogen Boost?

A: Nitrogen is crucial for chlorophyll production, enhancing photosynthesis efficiency and supporting robust plant development.

Q: How do I know if I need this?

A: We recommend using our Epic Soil Testing Kit before adding any booster to your soil. This will help you know more about what your soil may be lacking in or need more of for optimal growing! Feather Meal is used for raising the nitrogen level in soils deficient in nitrogen.
