Fish bone meal is a natural byproduct of the fishing industry, we make use of this "waste" material, as plant food, that would otherwise be discarded. It is made by dehydrating and grinding the bones into meal and helps improve soil structure and fertility by adding organic matter, which enhances water retention, aeration, and microbial activity in the soil. Coast of Maine Fish Bone Meal is preservative-free and is used instead of traditional steamed bone meal in all of our fertilizer blends.

MycoApply mycorrhizae are mixes of beneficial fungi which colonize the roots of plants and become a functional part of the roots. The increased effective root mass provides for more efficient water and nutrient uptake, increasing the ability of the plant to withstand stresses and establish more quickly. Ninety-five percent of plants form these symbiotic relationships with soil mycorrhizae in nature. The majority utilize the Endo(interior) mycorrhizae, but many types of trees utilize the Ecto(exterior) forms. The colonization and benefits last the lifetime of the plant. MycoApply is supplied as a granular formulation for field and soil incorporation, a suspendable powder for soil incorporation or drench application, or as the Soluble Maxx formulation.
Used to improve the drainage and aeration of any growing medium, perlite is a lightweight, expanded volcanic rock. Its high porosity also makes it suitable for rooting cuttings. Wet before using to prevent airborne dust.
Soil Moist has been developed to reduce the amount of watering needed to maintain vigorous, healthy plants. Soil Moist is safe to use in all landscape and gardening situations, including vegetable gardens. When mixed in the soil, the Soil Moist crystals will soften and swell as water is added and absorbed. The polymer acts as a water reservoir, releasing water to the plant as the surrounding soil dries.
