Which Peace of Mind^® or Happy Frog^® fertilizer should I use?

Begin with Starter for all new plantings.  Switch to an appropriate blend after the first two to three weeks.  For instance, we’ve got a special formula for lawns, one for acid-loving plants, and one just for Japanese maples.  Tomato Vegetable has a little more nitrogen because tomatoes and other vegetables can be heavy feeders, pulling higher amounts of nutrients out of the soil when they need them most.

If you’re not sure, our All-Purpose is a great option, and our Fruit & Flower will help bring just about any plant into bloom.

Can I burn plants with Peace of Mind^® or Happy Frog^® organic fertilizers?

There’s very little risk of burning plants with our organic fertilizers.  In fact, at twice the recommended dosage, plants will not burn.  However, we do suggest that you follow package directions for best results.  More fertilizer will not necessarily make a plant bloom earlier or grow faster!  Many other factors, including weather, sunlight, water, drainage, and the quality of your soil, will impact growth and flowering times.

How often should I fertilize with Peace of Mind^® or Happy Frog^®?

Most garden plants do best with a monthly feeding schedule that includes some time off during the dormant season.  However, each plant is different, so be sure to follow package directions.

How many cups are in a Peace of Mind^® or Happy Frog^® package so that I can figure out how many packages I need?  

On average, there are 11 cups of fertilizer in each of the four-pound Peace of Mind^® and Happy Frog^® packages.  This measurement varies slightly from product to product, because each Peace of Mind^® and Happy Frog^® variety has a slightly different volume. Some of our Peace of Mind^® products also come in convenient 18-pound bags for large gardens and landscapes.  On average, there are 49 cups in these 18-pound packages.

Should I be concerned if I notice fungi or mold growing on top of my soil after I apply Peace of Mind^® or Happy Frog^® fertilizers?

Not at all.  This is a normal condition.  If fact, the fungi and mold are exactly what Peace of Mind^® and Happy Frog^® fertilizers should be creating.  These are beneficial bacteria which help deliver nutrients to your plants.  However, you can reduce the appearance of surface mold by mixing Peace of Mind^® or Happy Frog^® thoroughly into the top few inches of soil surface and water thoroughly. 

My animal got into a package of Peace of Mind^® or Happy Frog^®.  What should I do?

Bad dog!  Peace of Mind^® makes a great snack for your garden, but Fido should stay out of it.  Give your animal plenty of water and call the vet.
