Suståne 8-2-4 All-Natural Fertilizer promotes a rapid rate of vegetative establishment and growth. Quick ground cover minimizes soil erosion and the need for repairs or re-seeding. Suståne replenishes the soil with a rich supply of humus (stabilized organic matter) and all of the primary, secondary and minor nutrients essential for quality growth. Suståne 8-2-4 is derived from biologically stable compost plus natural potash and feather meal.
Suståne 8-2-4 All Natural Slow Release Nitrogen Fertilizer and soil builder provides 6 - 12 weeks of nitrogen in the organic slow-release form for plant establishment in environmentally sensitive areas and depleted soils. Suitable for revegetation projects, rapid vegetative establishment, erosion control, wetlands and watershed areas, native plant areas, dune and beach restoration, burn area reestablishment, mine site reclamation, oil/gas/coal right of ways and pipelines, highway roadside establishment, protected natural areas, forests, parks, and landscapes.
