Excellent growth

So far so good, the plants which I have used with this product seem to be growing very well.
It does have a strange smell, but don’t have to use it for long periods of time, so all ok.

Excellent Item!

Very pleased with this item as I have to plant quite a few new plants & I know that this is the best way of encouraging good root growth.

Excellent results!

I have used Roots Boost for a number of years when repotting my collection of Japanese Maples and the root growth has always been excellent. A sprinkle of Roots Boost around the root ball it takes to ensure healthy growth - highly recommended!

Delicious!

A great start to the day, just a little sprinkle on the cereal. Breakfast just isn’t the same without it 😋 My partner’s beard is now magnificent.

No, seriously, from previous experience this stuff is worth adding to new planting. Too soon to comment on the effects this time around.
