I primarily sell water-soluble fertilizers that contain dehydrated minerals and amino acids. I promote feeding the plant and not the soil, because (among other things) the latter is the main source of ground water pollution. |
Hi Richard,
Thanks for your reply. There are many reasons I want to use organic components for fertilizers and not chemicals. I have dogs, I want to eat the bananas (without any chemical fertilizer), and want to keep my property chemical free.
So I am assuming from your response that you do not use any chemicals, is that right? If you could describe why your product is organic or is not, that would help me make a decision on whether or not to purchase it for my bananas.
If you don't have an organic fertilizer, I would think that could be something additional you could offer and I know many people would be interested. It's a win win.
Thanks Richard for your replies and info.
