Product Details
AZOMITE is a natural mineral powder product mined in central Utah. This unique mineral deposit was formed when an ancient volcano erupted with its ash settling into a prehistoric seabed, creating a complex mineral composition. It’s ideal for blending with other fertilizer materials and amendments as a trace mineral resource to help meet complete plant nutritional needs, and is an economical way to fortify and re-mineralize soils, composts, and potting mediums.
Ingredients: AZOMITE powder derived from volcanic ash
