How It Works

It was a german scientist, Baron Justus von Liebig, who in the mid nineteenth century helped the world understand the delicate balance involved in plant growth by proving that multiple nutrients are essential for plant life. He authored the "Law of the Minimum," which states that "plants will use essential elements only in proportion to each other, and the element that is in shortest supply - in proportion to the rest - will determine how well the plant uses the other nutrient elements."

In other words, if one element is missing or deficient, plant growth will be poor, even if other elements are abundant. If you think about it, von Liebig's law was really one of the first scientific justifications for organic gardening. By their nature, synthetic fertilizers give plants quick bursts of nutrients that disrupt the delicate balance. An organic lawn care system strives for a balance.¹

By using ORGAplus® all natural organic fertilizer, you are conditioning the soil with all the elements (major, macro, and trace elements) that are needed for maximum plant growth. The only other ingredients needed are sunlight and water.

Plants as a Bacteria Factory

With the use of ORGAplus® every plant will create its own "bacteria factory" when water is added.
