Hello,

 

Coming from a northeast Iowa farming family, I was used to putting seed or a plant into the ground and in a few months, enjoying a harvest. This planting method did not transplant to the Sonoran Desert. As I spent a lot of time and money with replanting, I came to rely on the local nurseries and horticulturists for products that might help me garden not only better, but more economically.

 

A few years ago, Tony Sarah offered me a sample of a fertilizer mix he was developing. So, as I have a background in research from both my college days and my professional career, I set up a basic side by side experiment. I bought new pots, potting soil (basic big box store variety) and 6 pack units of yellow banana peppers, Thai chilies and yellow pear tomatoes. I set everything up the same and followed Tony's instructions on using his fertilizer mix. By week 6, I measured the plants: those test pots were producing an average of 30% more fruit by volume than the control plants. A good researcher would have continued the testing for the entire season but I wanted fruit! I added the fertilizer mixture to everything: Garden plants, house plants and even my 20 yr old orange trees. I did and still continue to see more robust trees/plants, flowers and fruit/veg.

 

Earth's Original Organics fertilizer has made a tremendous improvement in my home organic garden. It is my opinion that as we focus more on the health of the soil, we will see an increase in the health of not only our plants but also the environment. I hope the days of clear cutting and chemical use for "food" production is coming to an end. Earth's Original Organics feeds the soil microcosm and my happy plants are all the proof I need!

 

Thank you for allowing me to share my experience,
