Steamed Bonemeal Powder (1KG) Organic Manure By CSR ORGANICS
Product Description
Steamed Bonemeal Powder : Bone meal is a mixture of finely and coarsely ground animal bones. It is used as an organic fertilizer for plants and as a nutritional supplement for animals. As a slow-release fertilizer, bone meal is primarily used as a source of phosphorus and protein.
How to use Steamed Bonemeal Powder
Before adding bone meal for plants to your garden, have your soil tested. The effectiveness of bone meal phosphorus drops significantly if the pH of the soil is above 7. If you find that your soil has a pH higher than 7, correct your soil’s pH first before adding bone meal, otherwise the bone meal will not work. Once the soil has been tested, add bone meal fertilizer at the rate of 10 pounds (4.5 kg.) for every 100 square feet (9 sq. m.) of garden that you are amending. The bone meal will release phosphorus into the soil for up to four months. Bone meal is also useful for balancing out other high nitrogen, organic soil amendments. For example, rotted manure is an excellent source of nitrogen but it tends to lack significant amounts of phosphorus. By mixing bone meal fertilizer in with rotted manure, you have a well balanced organic fertilizer.
