ABOUT BONE MEAL
Bone meal is calcium and phosphorus-rich. Calcium is famous for building strong bones, and it is also beneficial for plants. On the other hand, Phosphorous plays a big role in photosynthesis, root, flower, and seed production, energy transfer within the plant, and other vital functions. Bone meal fertilizer is thus packed with this essential mineral. It helps keep the cell walls of your plants strong and healthy and promotes sturdy growth. Root crops such as radishes, onions, and carrots, and other bulbs also benefit from bone meal. It is also best used to fertilizer flowering plants such as roses, tulips, dahlias, and lilies etc.
Benefits of Using Bone Meal in the Garden :
- Great Source of Phosphorus - Bone meal is approximately 15% phosphorus, and it comes in a form that’s especially easy for plants to utilize. This benefits root growth, cell division, seed growth, and prevents your plants from becoming stunted.
- Contains Calcium - Calcium is an essential component of healthy bones, which means that bone meal contains plenty for the benefit of your plants. This critical mineral also promotes new growth in roots and stems to keep your plants healthy for the full growing season.
- Balances Out Other Amendments - Most common garden amendments like compost and manure are high in nitrogen but low in other critical nutrients like potassium or phosphorus. Adding bone meal to the soil balances out these inequalities without you overpowering your soil with any one compound.
- Suitable for Organic Growing - Bone meal is an exceptional garden amendment from an organic gardening perspective. That’s because it improves the soil structure by increasing the concentration of beneficial soil microbes.
- Acts as a Slow Release Fertilizer - Bone meal takes a long time to break down, which means it gives your plants consistent access to phosphorus throughout the growing season.
- Boosts Health of Flowering Plants.
