AZOMITE - Mineral Amendment

Description:

In addition to nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (primary macronutrients) plants also require calcium, magnesium, and sulfur (secondary macronutrients in larger quantities. Micronutrients, however, are nutrients required only in very small quantities but are just as essential for healthy plant growth as macronutrients. AZOMITE® is a naturally occurring mineral amendment rich in micronutrients.

Mined from a volcanic ash deposit.

AZOMITE® has been shown to improve root systems, yields, and general plant vigor in a variety of applications, from field crops and orchards to lawn and garden use. AZOMITE® helps re-mineralize nutrient-depleted soils. 100% naturally derived, AZOMITE® is OMRI-listed for use in organic production and farming. Mined in Central Utah, this unique deposit was formed by a natural volcanic eruption as volcanic ash was deposited into an ancient seabed — and pushed to the surface by tectonic activity.
