Your Best Choice...
Fred Meyer GrowMix
A
uniquely recycled product that's ideal for all
your outdoor gardening. The organic materials
in GrowMix make this a great amendment to use
in existing beds or as a planting mix for any
outdoor container, such as window boxes, hanging
baskets or whiskey barrels. GrowMix provides an
ideal environment for building healthy root systems
for all flowering plants and vegetables.
Enrich
tired soils in your garden beds.
For existing
beds, combine GrowMix with the top 6" of soil
and then plant your starts or seeds. If you're
transplanting, mix it with existing soil from
the new plant hole.
A
great choice for your containers.
You can
use GrowMix straight from the bag in your outdoor
planters. For new plantings, start by putting
some GrowMix in the bottom of the container, set
your plant so the base of the stem is even with
or just below the rim of the container, and then
fill in around the sides with GrowMix. After watering,
you may need to top off the container with a little
more GrowMix.
GrowMix
is made in a way that reduces landfill waste while
producing an optimum soil mix.
Fred
Meyer has worked with its garden vendors to reduce
waste going into our municipal landfills. To create
GrowMix, produce trimmings and other "green waste"
are taken from Fred Meyer Stores and spread out
so millions of earthworms can get to work on it
to produce castings -- a process called vermicomposting.
These nutrient-rich castings are then combined
with composted yard materials (high quality because
they're free of manure and bio-solids).
The result
is GrowMix, a superior planting mix and soil amendment
that's 15% earthworm castings by volume (the optimum
percentage for a growing mix). And you'll
find it only at your Fred Meyer Garden Center!
Fred
Meyer GrowMix contains:
Canadian
sphagnum peat moss, earthworm castings, composted
fir bark sawdust, composted landscape debris,
and dolomite lime as a pH adjuster.
