To organic gardeners, compost has always been the heart of the garden. Society at large has endorsed composting as an excellent way to reduce green waste. Composters have been made available at reduced prices to urban and suburban homes. in the ever popular Green as Green can Be Sweepstakes, the soil saver composter is one of the most popular prizes. To assist you in the success of composting, Vigoro has a product called Compost Aid. compost Aid contains a natural source of N-P-K to enhance the composting process, gypsum to help control the odour, and most importantly, the micro-organisms required to break down organic matter. making compost without Compost Aid would be like baking bread without adding yeast. There are naturally occurring organisms present for composting (or making bread rise) but you are much more successful if you add Compost Aid (don't add compost aid to your bread, though... use yeast!)
Many of us do not have the capacity to produce enough compost to meet the fertility needs of our garden. Organic gardeners can turn to Canagro natural Organic Fertilizers. These "engineered organics" are composted, concentrated and granulated for you and provide a natural alternative to synthetic garden fertilizers. Organic fertilizers are slow-release and stimulate the naturally occurring micro-organisms in the soil. They act as a food source for both the plants and the organisms which live in the s oil.
Canagro "Nature's Fertilizer" 8-4-4 is an excellent organic lawn fertilizer. Use it four times a year the first year, and three times a year after that. That fertilizer program combined with leaving clippings and raising the mowing height will dramatically heighten your enjoyment of your lawn. Canagro 5-4-7 is an all-purpose organic fertilizer for use on flower beds or vegetable gardens. The high percentage of magnesium in this blend will benefit most soil conditions. The limestone content will help to "sweeten" the soil and helps to reverse the effects of acid rain.
Canagro Natural Organic Fertilizer and Compost Aid are perfect choices for the Organic Gardener.
