Not for New Plant Starts
By Robert on 02/17/2023
I was happy to see Osmocote available, but perhaps chose the wrong type for certain purposes. In the past, formulations were easy on new plant starts and I presumed this would be as well. The time release portion seems to be minimal, there are none of the green small spheres I associate Osomocote with. So, the product was great for my citrus and trees, but burned my new strawberry plants. I would get the higher grade Osmocote for new plants the next time.

We recommend having the soil tested for fertilizer requirements. Osmocote Blend 12 - 6 - 6 (2 - 3M) should be applied as directed.
