INCREDIBLE PRODUCT WITH OUTSTANDING RESULTS
By Mark on 05/11/2023
You can sprout a popsicle stick in this product! Started using last year late. This year have started 6 new Hibiscus with it. Had roots out the bottom of a 1 gal container in 30 days. Have never seen plants thrive so. I am not the kind to review a product and say I applied it last night to a nearly dead whatever and this morning my whatever is 6' tall. This is a truly outstanding product, for me it is a MUST HAVE!!!
She's a lab and they eat everything. What is she attracted to in the mix? I do NOT let her eat it! Just want to know the risks.
