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.
