Fox Farm - General Information:
Fox Farm offers custom blended organic soil mixes, 100% natural and organic fertilizers as well as organic based products that “combine the best of technology with the goodness of nature.”
Fox Farm is “The Little Guy”
Fox Farm products are mixed in small batches to ensure the very best quality and consistency found in organic soils and fertilizers today. Every product is grow tested for its effect on growth and flowering characteristics. No material will ever leave the warehouse unless it out performs the competition. Simply, if its not the best, Fox Farm is not interested.
What Does “Premium Select” Mean to Fox Farm?
The ingredients contained in Fox Farm products are subject to very rigid standards developed through years of experience and field trials. The complete process of caring for the earthworm cultures and managing the organic formulations is under their direct supervision.
What's So Great About Organics?
The natural fertilizers utilized in Fox Farm soil products are microbially active, which allows an immediate uptake of nourishment by plants. Organic ingredients are carefully selected to create fast acting as well as slow release feedings. The ocean organics, animal manures and earthworm castings found in Fox Farm soil and fertilizers are blended in combination with a fully mature compost. The result is a rich, sweet, earthy smelling humus, highly coveted by master gardeners. This optimum growing medium promotes vigorous plant growth and regenerates soil vitality instantly.
Earthworm Castings are Alive!
Earthworm Castings are known to have an extraordinary effect on plant life. They improve soil structure and increase fertility, which makes them one of the most enriched soil conditioners available. A healthy culture is bursting with life, full of regenerative organic materials that plants thrive on. That's why Fox Farm products are never steam sterilized or contaminated with synthetic chemical fumigants.
Bat Guano - Nature's Treasure
Bat Guano has been known since ancient times to be a highly beneficial organic soil amendment which has a powerful effect on all kinds of plants. The nutrients found in this material are immediately available to plants and contain selected enzymes which facilitates spectacular garden results.
Choose Your Nutrients Wisely or What Do All Those Numbers Mean?
Just like people, plants need a balanced diet to stay healthy and thrive. Most fertilizers only satisfy a portion of the plants' needs. They offer high doses of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium (N-P-K) and neglect to include valuable vitamins, humic acid, amino acids, organic materials to encourage beneficial microbes, and micro nutrients. Although the N-P-K value of chemical fertilizers seem to be high, they do not reflect what the plant can assimilate. Fox Farm uses additional ingredients that can make all the difference between growing average plants or prize winning beauties!
Synthetic Chemical Fertilizer Versus Organic Fertilizers
Do plants know the difference between a synthetic chemical fertilizer and an organic fertilizer?
All nutrients and plant foods, both synthetic and organic must be converted to a molecular form that plants can utilize. Plants do not recognize the difference between synthetic chemical or organic nutrient sources, however the soil does. Organic fertilizers are exceptional in creating long term benefits in soil. They encourage large populations of beneficial micro-organisms which facilitates nutrients to become immediately available to the plants.
Organic fertilizers help to maintain overall soil fertility by supplying vital organic matter, improving soil structure, and delivering nutrients. Organic fertilizers release gradually over time, which enables the soil to become a reservoir of stored plant foods. Applied regularly, Fox Farm fertilizer products will improve your soil's fertility for years to come.
Most synthetic fertilizers are formulated to be fast acting. They typically have a higher concentration of nutrient than do natural organic fertilizers, and are salt or acid based. Because plants can only absorb a certain portion of these types of fertilizers, some residue is left behind in the soil, or is leached out due to rainfall and watering. This can affect microbial populations, decrease soil fertility and contaminate ground water.
Fox Farm has “combined the best of technology with the goodness of nature” to create an extraordinary formula utilizing the best of both the organic and synthetic methods of plant nutrition. These organic based products promote essential regenerative qualities, such as increasing beneficial microbe populations which jump start your garden's ecosystem and keep it thriving. This means better nutrient uptake, more disease resistant plants and spectacular end results! Potent low salt fertilizers have been added in just the right amounts to provide for quick, stable, healthy growth and abundant blooms, without the harmful side effects of runoff and unwanted salt residual in the soil.
