FEATURES

  • The release of nutrients depends on temperature - more when it's warm and plants are growing and less when it's cold and growth is slow
  • Scotts Osmocote® uses advanced prill technology that ensures even and controlled nutrient release with no wastage 
  • Controlled release means feeding less often and more effectively; less frequent feeding is more economical and environment-friendly
