Blood Meal 13-0-0 (4 LB JUG)
Blood Meal 13-0-0 is an all-natural, concentrated source of nitrogen that gives plants a powerful boost when they need strong, healthy green growth.
With 13% nitrogen, Blood Meal is especially useful for nitrogen-hungry plants and vegetables. It helps encourage vigorous leafy growth and deep green foliage, making it a great choice for crops such as lettuce, leafy greens, corn and other heavy feeders.
Blood Meal is broken down by soil microorganisms, making its nitrogen available relatively quickly compared with many other natural nitrogen sources. It is best lightly incorporated into the surface of the soil around actively growing plants.
Blood Meal can also be a useful addition to the compost pile. Its high nitrogen content helps balance carbon-rich materials such as dry leaves and straw and can help encourage the composting process.
Yard Farm Bermuda promotes natural soil amendments like Blood Meal because they allow you to provide targeted plant nutrition while continuing to build and support biologically active soil.
Great For:
Leafy greens, lettuce, corn, nitrogen-hungry vegetables, plants showing signs of nitrogen deficiency and compost piles.
General Application Guide:
Apply 0.7–2 pounds per 100 Sq. Ft., depending on the nitrogen needs of your plants. Lightly incorporate into the surface of the soil after application.
