As one of nature’s great soil improvers Poultry Manure is the perfect choice for gardeners looking for an organic, environmentally friendly fertiliser. Raw manure contains the wrong form of Nitrogen. Composting converts most Nitrate Nitrogens into microbial protein and mineralised ammonium which is the most beneficial form of nitrogen for plants as it is readily available for the plant to use, converting the energy into plant growth. Fully composted, pelletized poultry manure avoids many of the inherent but misunderstood problems associated with the use of raw manures. The main issue is that raw manures flood the soil with excessive amounts of nitrate-nitrogen.

It also contains smaller amounts of other vital nutrients. It helps enrich the soil and maintain the soils delicate balance. Mineral Analysis: Here are 6 reasons why you should try fish, blood and bone fertiliser: 1) Gradual-Release but Not Slow-Release Only to be used only where there is a recognised need. Do not exceed the appropriate application rateLawns : Apply 2-3kg for every 10 square metres. Water in thoroughly and immediately for best results. Vegetables - 20kg per 100m² - incorporate into the soil well before sowing/planting. Top dress with 8kg/100m² after one third of cultivation period We compost fully undercover to avoid leaching or loss of Humic Acid. Humic Acid is the most plant available fertiliser and is a respected and honoured component of our pellets. Suitable for use where children and pets are present. However, some pets like to eat manure; in this case make sure all the pellets are thoroughly worked into the soil Azaleas, Native & Acid Loving Plants : Apply 50g (approx. 1 handful) per square metre, at least 10-15cm away from the trunk. Apply in Spring and Autumn.

Therefore, for best results, the pellets should be worked into the soil (a hoe is usually ideal). During dry weather, water before sowing seeds and after planting. Seed Sowing – 35g/sqm. Prepare seed bed and sprinkle. Rake well in and once seeds are established another application can be added as needed.

Planting Shrubs & Trees : Apply between 250g & 500g (approx. 5 to 10 handfuls) into the planting hole and mix with the soil. Potted Plants : For a 20cm diameter pot use about 25g and for a 30cm diameter pot use about 50g. Water thoroughly. Fertilisers usually have their nitrogen, phosphate and potassium levels expressed as 'NPK' values. Nitrogen promotes green leafy foliage; phosphate promotes strong root systems and potash promotes fruit and flower production and general plant health.

Composting – 200g/sqm. Spread the recommended amount between layers of organic material to provide a nutrient rich compost. Seed Trays & Pots – One part manure to 25 parts Peat or Loam mixed well in will help roots systems achieve advanced growth, health and stability. Fish, blood and bone fertiliser is perfect as it fully dissolves in about 3-4 weeks and provides gradually released nutrients to the plants without burning them.Ha after grazing in Winter. Over Winter the pellets will incorporate in the top soil and help initiate greater biological activity increases growth in Spring. You can use this type of fertiliser on crops as well as ornamental plants. It’s safe and natural. 4) It’s Sold in Large Quantities
