Review: AMAZING starter fertilizer with BIG results! - I never really paid much attention to this brand of fertilizer until after I started watching Garden Answer's YouTube videos. I was super impressed by Laura's flowers and results that I had to try this stuff and boy was I glad I did! Last summer, I used this with all flowers, vegetables, trees, and shrubs I planted and was blow away by the results! I have used MiracleGro and Osmocote fertilizers in the past, but wanted to find something organic for use in my gardens so I didn't have to worry about harsh chemicals. I was absolutely blown away at the abundant yields and healthy vigor of my plants this past year after using Bio-Tone. The root promotion and development of my plants was unlike anything I have ever seen with other products. I will admit, I was a little hesitant initially at trying this product, especially given that it is considerably more expensive than some of the other "big-names" in fertilizers. I was also a little surprised at the "smell" at first as others have commented on. However, after using it I can now see why so many gardeners recommend this product and I don't mind the smell anymore when using it. The results you see are more than worth the money spent! I will only be using Espoma organic products from here on out! Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Review: Great price - Great price! Excellent product for plants.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the difference between the two packages?**
A: It's a VERY important difference.  The Standard Starter Fertilizer is just fertilizer.  However the PLUS version has the all important Endo & Ecto Mycorrhizae enzymes.  Those inert enzymes are activated by moisture and immediately begin their fundamental purpose of stimulating vigorous root growth - which is exactly what you want to happen with newly planted vegetation.  Additionally, you can sprinkle some of that stuff on your morning cereal for a day-long experience you won't quickly forget - LOL!

**Q: What is the difference between this blue label bag and the green bag, both say starter plus ?**
A: Don't know that there's a difference.  Look for the dry enzyme listed on the package.  But you definitely want the PLUS variety!

**Q: Would this item be beneficial for my large potted plants on my deck? Or is this for in-ground vegetation only?**
A: I use bio tone whenever I plant a plant, in a pot or in the ground. It's really good at giving your plants a start with root growth.

**Q: When would you use this vs plant tone? i love all the tones when would i choose this one. i  divide a lot of plants. plant tone works is this better**
A: Hello,
you would use this product at time of planting to help produce large root systems quickly.  This will help ensure that new plantings get maximized water and nutrients from the soil
