Did you know there is a magic black dust that will make your veggies grow like weeds? I'm talking about blood meal! Blood meal is an organic fertilizer that is an excellent source of nitrogen and micro-nutrients. This nutrient explosion leads to an explosion in plant growth! It's inexpensive and easy to apply, and I will show you how to use blood meal.

Blood meal works by feeding soil. In its raw form, it is inert as a fertilizer. When the natural soil micro-biome decomposes the blood meal, it releases nitrogen and trace micro-nutrients into the soil, which then feeds your plants. This will build healthy soil, a thriving soil micro-biome and a growth explosion in your plants! Where some plant food products simply target the plant, this product will help your entire garden thrive. And, as a side benefit, it can also help repel pests from gardens. Blood meal's odor is known to repel deer, rabbits and moles from an area.
