🧪 How to Apply
Application Frequency

Recommended Quantity
Young Trees: ½ cup per inch of trunk diameter (measured at 4.5 ft height)
Mature Trees: 1 cup per inch of trunk diameter
Steps to Apply
Prepare the Area: Clear weeds and debris from the base of the tree
Spread Fertilizer: Apply evenly around the drip line, not against the trunk
Incorporate: Gently rake into the top few inches of soil
Water Thoroughly: Activate nutrients and help deliver them to the roots
🌍 Optimal Soil Conditions
Soil pH: 6.0 – 7.0 (slightly acidic to neutral for optimal nutrient availability)
Moisture: Keep soil evenly moist—avoid waterlogging or total dryness
Soil Type: Loamy soil preferred; amend sandy or clay soils with compost
Organic Matter: Boost soil with aged manure or compost to enhance nutrient retention and microbial health
Testing: Perform a soil test annually to check pH and nutrient balance
Pro Tip from the Farm:
Apply mulch after fertilizing to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Fruit trees thrive when the root zone stays cool and well-fed—set them up for success with seasonal consistency and soil care.
