I bought some Fish Bone Meal from this company back in January of 2013 so I could put it in my garden in in Stafford Connecticut! I put in tomatoes,peppers,onions, malabar, parsnip,carrots, (hubbard,scallop,yellow crock neck,golden nugget,&bush buttercup squash),beets,peas,cabbage,& ect they are all doing great I applied this fish bone meal in 2/7/13 under my 10″ leave mulched beds then again in mid march before planting turning it all evenly in:I have never seen such great healthy over all stocky and healthy plants in all my years of gardening !!! Plus I purchased fish bone meal the previous year from another outfit and never got these results!It seemed to me when I opened up the package of the fish bone meal I received from Kelp4Less it was obvious to me it was a far superior product with more of a good fresh fish smell and had a lot of real actual fish bone in it that was far superior to the other one I bought from another supposedly good company that put way to much worthless fillers in it to make up the weight that took away from the quality! Kelp4Less is far superior and the best in action in my garden results I would always get it from them again! My tomatoes are very stocky full of blossoms and fruit and all are 4 to 7 feet tall and its only mid July wow! Kelp4less has equal to if not the best products in the USA in my opinion and they are honest and back their products!

As I previously reviewed on another amendment that I purchased from Kelp4less early this year this Fish bone meal is also another fine example of the quality products that Kelp4less makes available. I used this in my soil mix with several other amendments and the blooms on my veggies have been spectacular this summer.
I am a happy customer and currently researching additional amendments to utilize in my next mix.
Thank you Kelp4less, again great products, prices, service and people.

I combined this Fish Bone Meal with equal parts of Cottonseed Meal, Fish Meal, Kelp Meal, Alfalafa Meal & Black Cow Manure around my new transplanted Knockout Rose Bushes & Mini Roses (Korbunda variety from Quebec). The plants are growing at an unbelievable rate with this recipe. If you are unsure of your soil PH go slow on the Alfalfa meal. The nitrogen can burn your new plants or even established plants. The Knockouts are not producing many blooms so I called Kelp4Less & they suggested adding MKP to help the blooms multiply.

I grow most of my vegetables from seed. After my tomatoes got to be about 3 inches high the leaves turned yellow. I sprinkled fish bone meal around them, and their green came back. I was excited! I’m looking forward to using the other products I purchased.
