Pro-Tips from Kent Countryside Nursery:

  • Perfect for Containers & Raised Beds: This 4 lb. bag is the ultimate size for refreshing your seasonal porch containers, window boxes, or feeding a backyard raised vegetable bed here in Carmel.

  • Put It Where the Roots Are: Unlike traditional fertilizers that you sprinkle on top of the mulch, Bio-tone needs to make direct contact with the roots. Always mix the granules directly into the soil you use to backfill your planting hole.

  • Great for Local Clay Soils: Our Hudson Valley soil can sometimes be heavy or compacted. The beneficial microbes in Bio-tone actively work to improve soil structure and aeration right around the root zone, helping new roots break through tough soil.
