FERTILIZER

In reclamation, fertilizer is all about playing the long game. Often, you are “setting and forgetting” a project on a site, so you need a slowreleasing fertilizer to help maintain healthy soil, especially for slow-toestablish plants like native grasses.

Fertilizers can help address a number of challenges unique to reclamation:

• Slow establishment of native grasses: Combat this with a slow-release fertilizer, or even better, an organic fertilizer that stays biologically active in the soil.

• Poor soil conditions: Low organic matter or high salt content makes plant establishment very difficult. Look for products with availability and the ability to thrive in salt.

Products like TurfRx K+ Micro Crystal and Dakota Rev are great options under this environment.

• Projects are often “one and done”: In most cases, once you’ve completed a reclamation project, you leave the site with no plans to return. So, an organic fertilizer that can slowly release over time is a great tool for unsupervised projects. Our motto? Feed the soil versus the plant to win in reclamation.
