Re: Davey Arbor Green Fertilizer I am not familiar with arbor green It may well be an organic fertilizer. For clarification the elements required for uptake are in-organic and they are salts. Ammonium nitrate, nitrites, sulphates, Humates, etc are all salts. They ore organically derived through processes in the soil from soil microbiological activities. These salts are derived in very specific ways and some of these chemical breakdowns can take millions of years to occur. To broadcast an excess of these salts around is to not clearly understand the biology subsurface and it is in fact quite detrimental. Trees have been growing throughout the world long before we ever came along and started using excessive chemicals left over by the war to facilitate plant growth. Ultimately replicating their environment as best we can is a surefire way of doing the "right thing" and working backwards from that at times of not being able to do what we think is best is going to happen. |
