    Osmocote--Who Could Complain?

    By Mike on 06/17/2023

    Osmocote is a great product for potted plants--no doubt about it. The large sizes are great values, too. I usually use a very early spring application and a lighter later application. I've also used it in small tuff-to-establish or low-density turf in very shady areas with great success too--not a typical use, but it seems to work better than lawn products. As an aside, the packaging and zip lock closure do a really good job of keeping the product fresh and dry.
