The following question and answer is applicable for the products contained in the following DIY packages:

• DIY: Bio-Stimulant Package   (N-Ext: RGS, Air-8, Humic12, 0-0-2 MicroGreene)

• DIY: Plant, Shrub & Tree Package  (N-Ext: RGS, Humic12, 4-0-2 FloraGreene, 0-0-2 MicroGreene)

Answer: 

Watering in Requirement: If a hose end sprayer is used with a setting allows for a 20-1 dilution with water of each product there is no need to water the application in. If you must use a dilution rate that is less than 20-1 or if there is uncertainty about your actual dilution rate, the application(s) should be watered in for 5-15 minutes.

Are your products environmentally friendly?

At Greene County Fertilizer Company, we know you are not only concerned about having a green lawn and healthy plants but you also want the fertility products applied to your property to be environmentally responsible while still protecting your investment.

Greene County Fertilizer Company’s fertilizers and fertility products are bio-based products designed to produce outstanding results without the harmful side effects of pollutants. Our soil amending fertilizers and specialty products allow your landscape to flourish the way nature intended. You will notice improved color, longer lasting blooms, and significant growth to trees, shrubs and flowers. Our natural fertilizers and specialty fertility products are designed to feed plants, improve soil fertility and build topsoil.

The science behind Greene County Fertilizer Company fertilizers is a balance of plant science and soil science. The turf and plants receive the nutrients they need to thrive and the soil receives the carbon it needs to maintain and build susstainable fertility. Nitrogen inputs with Greene County Fertilizer Company products are greatly reduced compared to conventional fertilizers.

The soil type, turf grass variety, environmental conditions, watering, and mowing are just a few of the things that can profoundly impact the fertility and control needs of a lawn as well. Please take care to make sure you are following recommended best management practices for all aspects of your lawn care program.

While frozen product is not warrantied by Greene County Fertilizer Company, that does not mean that it cannot be used.

Allow product to thaw.

Aggressively agitate / shake / Stir the container.

Pour the product into your tank through a strainer. (An inexpensive stainless steel kitchen colander works well for this)

Any solids that precipitate out can be either discarded or dissolved in hot water and then poured in the tank.

N-Ext Air-8™, Humic12™, D-Thatch™, RGS™ and Sea-K™ should have little to no precipitate and should show little to no reductions in efficacy.

Products that contain Nitrogen and/or Iron will contain crystals which will dissolve in hot water (albeit slowly) for addition to spray tank.  Because of the precipitation of Nitrogen and Iron, the performance of these products will be reduced by an unpredictable measure.™
