    Used this all over my yard, lawn, vegetable garden, and potted plants. After almost 10-14 days, I saw a healthier color to all and stronger looking stems. I used this product to revitalize old soil in pots from last year, AND it worked.

    Best Organic Fertilizer I've Tried

    Comments about PHC All-Purpose:

    I've been using this product for over 10 years (though it's name -- and I think it's formulation has been fiddled with a bit for the better -- has changed over the years.) Before I started using this, I tried all different kinds of organic fertilizer. Not only does this one work the best, but it's not at all foul or "chemical" smelling. The consistency is very fine so I suggest not using it when it's windy.

    What I like best about the current formulation is that you can use it for seedlings, veggies and flowers. It's an easy all-in-one product.

    Comments about PHC All-Purpose:

    This product works so well that my friends and neighbors are stopping by to beg a scoop or two! My potted plants and veggie grow bags are the best I have ever grown. I give each one watering with PHC per week - I have more green peppers on one plant than I have ever seen in the twenty five years that I have been a gardener. Try it - your neighbors will be asking about your secret ingredient as well.

    USED IT IN THE VEGETABLE GARDEN AND EXTENSIVELY IN TRANSPLANTS OF TREES AND BUSHES THIS SPRING.
    I'VE USED IT IN PLACE OF "ROOT STARTER". I'VE SHARED A JAR WITH MY SON WHO IS A "BEGINNER" THIS YEAR.

    VEGETABLES ARE THE BIGGEST YET FOR THIS EARLY IN THE SEASON.

    Comments about PHC All-Purpose:

    Start mixing the product with a little water to make a paste. Continue adding small amounts of water at a time while stirring constantly. After the product is mixed, you can add to your sprayer. This is a great product but not an easy one to use.

    This is essential for self-watering containers. In previous years without it, my tomato plants would start going down hill once the root system started to reach the reservoir. This year they are happy and healthy.

    This is an outstanding product. I use it to fertilize seedlings I've started for the veggie garden along with potted plants on the porch and house plants. It disolves very quickly in water and is easy to adjust concentration levels based on what you're using it on. Without a doubt, I will always use this product.
