Question

How do I determine what AgGrand Organic Fertilizers I should use, and how much of each should I use.

 

Answer

The best and most effective way to determine what AgGrand Organic Fertilizers should be used and how much of them you should use in a particular application, is to perform a soil analysis. To perform a soil analysis is very simple you can contact your local county extension office and get a soil analysis kit and then take the kit back to your local county extension office and they will do the soil analysis for you and send the results to you by mail, there may or may not be a charge for this service as some extension offices do soil analysis for free. Alternatively you may contact us for a soil analysis kit we would send you a kit free of charge, you follow the simple instructions on how to get soil samples and send the kit and a check or Money Order for $12.70 to Midwest Labs in Omaha Nebraska and they will send a copy of the analysis to you and one to AgGrand, AgGrand will review the analysis and send you a copy of the AgGrand Fertility Guide showing you which AgGrand fertilizer products to use, and how much of each.

Question

Why is AgGrand better than other fertilizers?

 

Answer

AgGrand is the most highly formulated line of natural liquid fertilizer products on the market today.


 

Question

AgGrand Natural Fertilizers have a lower NPK grade than chemical fertilizers do.  Does this mean that they are less effective than the chemical fertilizers?

 

Answer

Not at all!  In fact testing has demonstrated that AgGrand products are more effective than chemical fertilizers, because they stimulate the soil microbial activity, helping to process the nutrients, making them more available to plants.  Only 7-8% of most chemical fertilizers is utilized by the plant while the rest becomes run-off that can contaminate surface and groundwater.


 

Question

Why should I stop using my usual brand of fertilizer and start using AgGrand?

 

Answer

AgGrand has a complete line of natural liquid fertilizers.  Our tests have shown that AgGrand out performs chemical fertilizers, while providing all your plants nutritional needs.  AgGrand is ideal for all vegetables, fruits, flowers, crops, lawns, trees, shrubs, and houseplants without causing any environmental harm.


 

Question

What Can I do for weed control?

 

Answer

You can use corn gluten meal as an organic weed preventative, Corn gluten meal has been shown to halt weed germination, but it must be applied before weed seeds take root. Applications should be done in the spring in most northern states. Remember that corn gluten meal will stop the germination of any grass seed as well, so do not use it if you are reseeding a lawn.


 

Question

What are the six reasons that make AgGrand better and why should I use it?

 

Answer

  1. AGGRAND is one of the most (if not THE most) highly formulated fish-kelp products in the industry. It is elementally and ionically balanced to maximize soil microbial response, earth worm response, and foliar and root application responses. It contains:

     

    • Atlantic Hydrolyzed Fish Extract

    • North Atlantic Kelp Extract

    • Natural Sulfate of Potash

    • Bloodmeal

    • Molasses

    • Proprietary Synergistic Compounds

    • Humus Extract

    • Vitamins

    • Filtered Through #100 Mesh

     

  2. AGGRAND stimulates soil microbial activity and brings earthworms into the soil.

    Earthworms can supply 700 pounds of castings in one acre in one day. Free microbes can supply 100 pounds of nitrogen in one acre over the growing season. All plant needs can be met when used in conjunction with other sustainable practices such as cover cropping, crop rotation, minimum tillage, on-farm inputs such as compost and manure, and reduction of chemical inputs.

     

  3. AGGRAND is a multi-purpose fertilizer. Spectacular results can be seen on lawns, shrubs, trees, flowers, vegetables, fruits, etc. Use AGGRAND anywhere you would like to see a more lush, vibrant plant or larger, more flavorful fruits and vegetables.
     

  4. AGGRAND offers a full fertility service. The biology follows the chemistry. The first practice to put into place is soil testing. Order a soil test kit by calling the catalog ordering line and a copy of the results can be sent to AGGRAND scientists who provide a completely organic fertility plan including both AGGRAND products and other organic products. This organic fertility plan costs under $15 per sample.
     

  5. Growers can realize the benefits of AGGRAND such as increased tolerance to heat, drought, cold, and reduced susceptibility to insect and disease attack without changing their present system (although long term results will be better with reduced chemical use). Just apply it as a foliar feed at 1-2 gallons per acre or 2-3 ounces per gallon 10 days after emergence, first flower, and/or during fruit fill (use the higher rate for heavy feeders and high value crops such as corn, tomatoes, potatoes, and melons). AGGRAND added at 1-2 gallons per acre to the spray tank will increase pesticide effectiveness, reduce pesticide application necessity by 1/3 to ½, and relieve the impact of stress inducing impacts as listed above.

     

  6. AGGRAND products can be combined to give optimum results according to plant needs and soil fertility levels.


 

Question

What are three things to keep in mind when using AgGrand

 

Answer

  1. On toxified soils it takes time to bring life back into the soil. AGGRAND must be used in conjunction with other sustainable practices for 3 to 5 years to get optimum results. On less toxified soils results are much more immediately seen.
     

  2. When converting a lawn, garden, or field, weed pressure will get worse before it gets better. Weeds are adventitious (they move into compacted, unbalanced, toxified soils). But herbicide and insecticide use must be reduced or eliminated to get optimum results from AGGRAND and other organic inputs. Eventually the more evolved crop plants will out-compete weeds when the soil chemistry and biology are optimized.
     

  3. I am more than happy to discuss your individual needs and work in conjunction with the organic scientists at AGGRAND to put together a program that will work for you. It may take time, but you can break the chemical cycle and still have the kind of lawn, garden, crops that you want while protecting the environment that helps to make all of it possible.
