Organic Approach 9-0-4 Fertilizer

Organic Approach 9-0-4 Fertilizer is a premium slow-release organic fertilizer designed for lawns, vegetable gardens, flowers, trees, shrubs, and general planting areas. It is naturally plant derived, non-burning, and a strong choice for homeowners and contractors who want dependable feeding power with a more natural approach to plant and soil health.

This fertilizer is made from a homogenized blend of feather meal, soybean meal, cottonseed meal, alfalfa meal, and vegetative ash. It is also the fertilizer we premix into our Organic Garden Mix, so if you have already recently purchased our Garden Mix, there is usually no need to add more of this product at the same time.

Why Customers Choose Organic Approach 9-0-4

• Slow-release, non-burning organic fertilizer
• Plant-derived formula with no animal manures
• Low-dust, spreadable granular product
• Good fit for lawns, gardens, flowers, shrubs, and trees
• Helps support soil biology and long-term plant health
• Phosphorus-free formula that works well for established lawns

Best Time To Use

• Lawns: after the first mowing of the season, then repeat through the growing season as needed
• Vegetable gardens: at planting time, with a second feeding mid-season for heavier feeders if needed
• Flower beds, shrubs, and ornamental plantings: spring and fall are the main feeding windows

For Connecticut lawns, a practical window is after mid-April and before mid-October. In most cases, one spring feeding and one fall feeding are the core applications, with additional feedings depending on how intensively you want to manage the lawn.
