Dear Kim,
While browsing the Organic Supply Catalog I first read about Azomite.
Due to a very late start gardening here in the Northeast this year due
to excessive rain and no sun (in May it rained 24 of the 31 days), I decided
to give it a try.
I planted my garden from mostly plants the first week of June. I sprinkled
the Azomite around my leggy sunflowers (then about 6" tall) and around
my winter squash, melons, and cucumbers. The squash, melons, and cucumbers
were getting very yellowy leaves. This is a community garden and I did
not lime nor know what was planted last year. Within 10 days, my sunflowers
were 2 feet tall, and all the yellowing on the other plants disappeared.
This means the plants were able to utilize the nutrients in the soil.
The sunflowers continued to shoot to the sky and now (July 23) are about
6 to 7 feet tall, and the yellowing on the other plants has not returned.
The Haricot Verts I planted with Azomite and side-dressed 2 weeks later
are bearing beans for over a week now while my bush bean that were only
side-dressed are just starting to flower. Although my neighbors are having
problems with cuke beetles, my cucumber plants are healthy and bearing
cukes. My beets also got some Azomite and are doing as well as my neighbor
who plants his a good 3 weeks before me.
I feel good about using a product that is organic and soil-nurturing,
and I don't have to be concerned about my granddaughter touching the plants.
I know that I am enriching the soil and helping the earthworms and nature
to revitalize my garden. I wholly recommend this product to anyone who
wants to grow either flowers or vegetables and have a bountiful crop.
I'm so glad I read about and used Azomite!
