    Comments about Raised Bed Booster Kit:

    I've been using this product to recharge two 2'x2' wooden boxes that i keep on my deck in which I grow lettuce, beets, arugula, etc. Haven't changed the dirt in a few years, and everything still grows well. I believe it accelerates growth.

    I use this in my Terrazza raised vegetable beds at the beginning of each season. This product saves me from having to replace the container mix; and thereby, saves my back and my pocketbook. The veggies grow great with this stuff.

    We used the Vermont Compost mix in our new copper cap raised bed & wow! Our vegetables have really taken off, are very healthy & are "growing like weeds." We'll definitely buy more for next year's garden!

    Comments about Raised Bed Booster Kit:

    Instead of replacing the soil each year in my Tomato Success Kits, I use this booster and fertilizer and mix it with the existing soil. Each and every year I get beautiful results. As a matter of fact, the containers yield more fruit per plant than the tomato plants in the garden. Saves money and work every year.

    Comments about Raised Bed Booster Kit:

    I am an organic gardner, and have several raised beds I have had for years, and they needed some "UMPH" to get going in the spring. This works great for that ~ it's easy to use, and really gives my perennials a boost, as well as making the soil charged up for the annuals I put in the beds. The package is so convenient, I'm getting several every spring.

    I have a 5'X 7'X 3'high raised garden bed made from cinder block. Greatest thing ever, no crawling around on the ground anymore! The soil seemed like it was getting tired, so I am giving this product a try. Super easy to use, hope it works well!

    Prepares the soil by fertilizing, and aerating. New generations of earthworms are steadily produced. Easy to use; just add to soil, keep moist, and provide organic material such as leaves or grass clippings for them to eat.

    Comments about Raised Bed Booster Kit:

    After reading prior reviews for this product, I decided to try it. I tend to shy away from big brand fertilizer manufacturers. I wanted something healthier for the environment--compost! It seemed like my garden needed some fresh organic nutrients to give it a boost. I purchased this item and immediately applied to my raised garden bed in August. After a approximately two weeks, I could see a difference. The plants were greener, looked healthier and had increased in growth. [...]

    Comments about Raised Bed Booster Kit:

    Last year I filled my large, self-watering, raised-bed containers with a moisture-control container mix from the local hardware store, and got really poor results with my veggies and herbs. This year I added the recommended amount of bed booster to the containers; and now the plants are producing like mad. I'll definitely buy this product again.

    This product was easy to use and had no odor. I am experimenting for the first time with a raised vegetable garden so do not have conclusive results but after planting, my growth has almost doubled in a weeks time. The plants look healthy and sturdy.
