My garden bed is about 20 feet by 4 feet, and this 3lb bag of Burpee Bone Meal Fertilizer gave me two good late-fall / early-winter slow-release soil nutrients. My garden bed is separate from the yard - so you can think of it like a container garden of a sort. After a couple of years of tending the garden, I asked my friend Rochelle to come have a look and give me her assessments and thoughts. She suggested that those garden seasons had probably drained the soil in the bed of essential nutrients; I'd not been using any kind of fertilizer, save coffee grinds, and she suggested bone meal. I added about 1.5 pounds of bone meal once the garden season was over - approximately November of 2023 and 2024. Year one, the effect on my garden's growth was dramatic. My cucumber vines, okra plants, squash vines, and tomato plants all grew really well and healthy. In year two, it became clear that simply adding these nutrients to soil needed to be supplemented by a top up of 50/50 top soil and compost, but that's not a fault in the Bone Meal supplement, just learning more about gardening.

Not much to say, it's bonemeal that I'll use come spring

Bone meal is something I always keep in my garden supplies. If you want your plants to have an abundance of flowers - mix bone meal into the dirt of in-ground flowering plants or potted plants and flower bulbs. I usually use 1st thing in the spring adding a little around each perennial (mix into dirt) and then again part way through summer to give the plants a boost. I also use when planting bulbs. HELPFUL HINT: Some wild critters (and dogs) LOVE bone meal. To keep them from trying to eat it (and they will), after mixing into dirt, sprinkle red pepper flakes around plant. Won't harm the plant and the critters will stay away. You don't need a lot, but it will keep you from having to replant what you planted the day before. Also, I don't leave a bag of bone meal outside, the mice (I think it's them) will happily eat a hole into the bag and share with all the other critters. Happy gardening.
