Espoma TP6 Triple Phosphate Fertilizer, 6.5-Pound

While getting espoused products online is prohibitively expensive, I have never found a store that will carry their full line of products. Sure holly-tone, plant-tone, and garden-tone are everywhere, but beyond that it is hit or miss. I like espionage products. They are consistently good and using organic products allows you to feed the plants without shocking them. I am in my third house, in 25 years. The process is always the same whether it’s inside or out. I have never bought a house from a gardener - and in my next life it might be fun to start with an established base. Instead, I seem to rescue yards where the closing thing to fertilizer is dog poop or leaves that have piled up in a distant, concealed part of the yard. Starting from scratch, I think organically work better. As much as someone who hasn’t eaten in a week, might like to hit a Chinese buffet and grab a Big Mac and fries for dessert, an hour later they will be sick. In the same way, a yard that isn’t taken care of can’t handle synthetic fertilizers without the potential for harm and from my experience unsustainable results. Step 1 is get the pH right. If the the yard is too basic or acidic the plants won’t even absorb the fertilizer. Step 2 is begin to gradually begin to nourish the yard and gardens. This is where espoma products come in. Moving to a home with beautiful, established plants is great...but they are unhealthy. With patience, in a few years, your azaleas will bloom more, your grass will be greener, thinker and healthier - resulting in being able to withstand summer heat and droughts, roses will be less subject to every ailment possible...it just works...it’s not fast, but the joy of finding tons of earth worms moving through beautiful loamy dirt, where once there was only clay is the reward, or a boxwood that once looked like Swiss cheese and half bald, being strong and healthy enough to shape. Those are the rewards. Espoma products are the way I get there.

Great value for the money. Cheaper than tractor supply and didn’t have to leave the house.

Trying to get my northern spy apple tree to finally bloom. It is taking a lot longer that it should and hopefully this can help.

Works as it should. The bag was split open when it arrived.

The bag came in a bubble envelope and ruptured on the side spilling a few cups worth on to the floor. Looks like quality stuff but the packaging might need work.
