Time release container plant food

 

How do they work

A timber based polymer coats the water soluble feed granule.  These granules are formed into a shaped cluster using a water soluble glue. This polymer has millions of tiny holes that allow water in which dissolve the feed.  This then moves out of the granule at a controlled rate to feed plants for several months

How do I use them

According to the size of the container push clusters into the compost between the plants and the rim of the container

Will they break down

Yes,  the water soluble glue breaks down almost immediately. After they have emptied of feed the granules will gradually biodegrade over the next season or two.  Being timber based the breakdown products will be recycled in the soil

How long do they feed for

Depending upon soil temperature they will feed for up to 6 months
