Greensand Organic Fertilizer (0-0-7)
See the latest Green-sand organic fertilizers at Amazon.com
Greensand (GS) organic fertilizer is a one of the best sources
of potassium
(iron-potassium silicate). It comes from sandy rock or sediment
containing a high percentage of the mineral glauconite (greenish-black
to blue-green). Glauconite is used in water treatment as a water
softener.
It has been marketed for over 100 years as a organic
fertilizer and soil conditioner. The slow release rate of plant
nutriments minimizes plant damage by fertilizer "burn" while the GS's
moisture retention helps soil conditioning. It is non water soluble so
it would not make a great liquid fertilizer. It is odorless and can be
applied anytime of the year.
