Perfect-Blend - Model 2-2-1 - Organics Calcium

Small Garden - Vegetables: Apply 2 lbs. along the bottom of a 24 foot section of the seed furrow, then cover the fertilizer with a thin layer of soil. Place your seeds on this soil layer, then cover the seeds with an additional layer of soil to the depth recommended on the seed package. For hill plants such as squash and potatoes place one cup in the bottom and sides of the planting hole, followed by a layer of soil, then the seeds. Cover the seeds with ground level soil and then water. For legumes, such as beans and peas, less nitrogen is required. Put half as much Perfect Blend, or one cup every 50 feet, for best results. During the growing season apply an additional 2 lbs. every 50 feet after your plants bloom. Work these plant nutrients into the soil around the plant root zone. A good time to do this is when you are weeding or hilling-up your plants. Always water in newly applied fertilizer.

Field Vegetables & Orchard Applications:

• Broadcast - Broadcast up to one ton per acre using conventional spreading equipment. Fertilizer is most efficient if tilled in immediately after application.
• Side Banding – Side-band at the rate of one-half ton per acre in most soils. In sandy or poor soils, this rate can be increased.
• Hand Application - Applications by precise hand measure care efficient at approximately onequarter ton per acre. Wheat - Fertilize in front of drill during seeding at a rate of one-quarter to one-half ton per acre.
• Rice  - Follow above directions, however, allow at least two weeks before flooding field to provide time for soil micro-organisms sufficient air to full soil food-web integration
• New Orchards – Place one pound in the bottom of the planting hole, cover with at least one inch of dirt and then place tree.
• Revitalization of Old Orchards – Drill a 2” hole approximately 12” deep at a distance of 18” – 24” from the trunk of the tree. Fill to the top with fertilizer. Permanent PVC pipes can be placed in hole to prevent the need for re-drilling the following season.

APPLICATION RATE:

Application Rates - Most crop lands require two applications, one in the spring and one in the fall. High nitrogen crops may require up to three applications during the primary growing season. Maximum Application of 6,000 Lbs per acre applied two times per year.
