Natural Fertilizer for Small Fruits and Acid-Loving Plants – Fafard 4-1-4
Fafard's 4-1-4 Natural Fertilizer for Small Fruits and Acid-Loving Plants is formulated to support plants that require acidic soil, particularly those grown for their flowering or fruit production. Its chicken manure base provides rich organic matter that improves soil structure, promotes water retention, and stimulates microbial activity essential for effective nutrition.
Thanks to its balanced nutrients, this fertilizer acts on vegetative growth, flowering, and fruiting. It helps intensify the pigmentation of acid-loving flowers, especially blue hydrangeas, while supporting regular and abundant production of small fruits.
