Jobe's Organics Granular Garden Fertilizer | For Vegetables & Tomatoes | 4 lbs Bag | Pack of 2

I'm very pleased with this organic fertilizer. It's a 2-5-3 formulation that is excellent for a wide range of vegetables. I augment it with fish fertilizer for veggies that need a nitrogen boost (such as leafy greens) but for everything else, this works very well. It's granular and easy to work into the ground (or pot/raised bed). As with any organic fertilizer there's a noticeable odor, but it's not bad at all. It's derived from bone meal, poultry manure and sulfate of potash. It also provides a good assortment of bacteria and fungi species to build and maintain a healthy soil environment. It is made in the USA. I've been a Jobes user for years and none of their products have ever fallen short of expectations. This is no exception -- five stars.

Positive Remarks: - Bag is Resealable - Boosted growth on my Tomatoes and Peas - Made plant look even greener while still producing a lot of fruit - It’s a great value for your money Negative Remarks: None :) Overall: Jobe’s Tomato and Vegetable Organic Fertilizer is overall a really great fertilizer for your plants and veggies. I used this on my Tomato and Pea plants and they have gotten much bigger and produced much more fruit. I would certainly recommend this product to anyone looking for a non expensive but great quality fertilizer for the Tomatoes and Vegetables. **Note: When I received this fertilizer, I looked at the back of the package and saw that it said 1 and 1/2 tablespoons per 4 inch container and then 1 and 1/2 cups per 16 inch container, but when I thought about that, that didn’t make sense. If a 16 inch container is 4 times as big as a 4 inch pot than the application for the 16 inch pot should be 4 times as much as the 4 inch pot but... it isn’t, it’s 16 as much as the 4 inch pot application so I gave Jobe’s a call and they said that the packages they have say that the application for a 16 inch pot is 6 tablespoons (which is mathematically correct) so maybe they updated the packages and after the old ones run out they will send the new one.. I’m not sure, so I just wanted to note that for whoever is a little bit confused by that.

I’ve been using this for my peppers and perilla plants, and they’ve never looked better! The growth is much faster and the leaves look super healthy. It’s a solid organic option that really works. The only downside is the strong smell when you first apply it, but the results make it worth it.

Always good and I don't use anything else, great buy!

As someone who loves fresh veggies but doesn't always have the time or skill for meticulous gardening, I was intrigued by Jobe's Organics 09026 Fertilizer. Its organic claims and promises of fast-acting results seemed too good to be true, so I put it to the test in my tomato patch. Here's the dirt: The Good: Organic Bounty: This fertilizer is OMRI-listed, meaning it's certified organic and free of synthetic chemicals. My veggies grew happily without any worries about harsh additives. Speedy Sprout: Jobe's Biozome, a blend of beneficial microbes, definitely lived up to its name. My tomato plants flourished within weeks, with noticeably more vibrant leaves and earlier fruit production. Drought Defender: Even during a surprise heatwave, my tomato plants held strong. The improved soil conditions thanks to the Biozome seemed to help them retain moisture and weather the dry spell. Pest Patrol: While not a magic bullet, I noticed a decrease in insect activity compared to previous years. The healthier plants seemed less appealing to hungry bugs, which gave me some peace of mind. Convenient Caddy: The resealable bag makes it easy to store and use the fertilizer. No more messy spills or lost product! The Not-So-Good: Potent Aroma: Some reviewers mentioned an unpleasant odor. While I didn't find it unbearable, it's definitely noticeable, especially right after application. Be prepared for a whiff of earthy funk. Mystery Microbes: The exact composition of Jobe's Biozome isn't readily available. While it seems effective, knowing more about the specific microbes involved would be reassuring for some gardeners. Not for Indoor Use: This fertilizer isn't meant for indoor plants. So, if you're hoping to boost your houseplant jungle, you'll need to find a different formula. Overall: If you're looking for an organic and fast-acting fertilizer to give your veggie garden a boost, Jobe's Organics 09026 is a great option. The Biozome technology truly seems to work, leading to healthier plants and earlier harvests. Just be prepared for the earthy aroma and the lack of detailed information about the microbes at play. Happy gardening!

I use this every year on my tomatoes, green beans, eggplants, and various other veggies. Very delicious tomatoes with very little vegetation to remove.

I am a "square foot" gardener so it is very important to enrich my garden soil. Because plants are close together & the beds are raised, the soil can be easily depleted of vital nutrients. I've used this fertilizer in combination with a healthy dose of homemade compost for several years with excellent results. I till the fertilizer & compost in to the soil before planting & then I side dress the plants in July & August. I use this particular formula for all my garden vegetables to keep things simple. It seems to work well for everything but especially my tomatoes. You should test your soil before applying fertilizer to be sure you are using the correct formula for what your garden is lacking. The analysis of this Vegetable/Tomato Formula is: 2-7-4 Nitrogen 2% (.8% Water Soluble & 1.2% Water Insoluble) Available Phosphate 7% Soluble Potash 4% Calcium 7% Magnesium .5% Sulfur 1.4% The fertilizer smells like cat food to me (probably because of the bone meal) but it goes away in a few days after being watered in.
