Soil Remediation and Natural Balancing Fertilizer
Balance Boost is a product to combat an unbalanced supply of nutrients that may be present in overused or unconditioned soil. Overgrowing can be detrimental to vegetable and fruit production resulting in a reduction of crop yields.
Efficacy
Effective at correcting nutrient imbalances caused by continuous nitrogen fertilization. Effective at adding natural sugars to the soil to enhance soil microbiota.
Application
Use Balance Boost when there is too much nitrogen in the nutrient supply by adding 3.8 ml (3/4 tsp) of product to one gallon (1 gal) of water to properly dilute, unless otherwise specified in the table below.
