After watching a few videos of plant specialists using this when planting I wanted to give it a try. I couldn’t find it anywhere locally so I was glad to see it was sold on this site. I like that it’s organic as well.

Couldn’t find Bio-Tone Starter in any local store so I ordered from Plants by Mail. Arrive quickly and has been used in my fall planting. Looking forward to seeing the results!

Loved your tutorial on Bio Tone Starter Plus.. I couldn’t find it locally.. So I am ordering it now with you folks. I am hoping it will help my distressed Gardenia which I transplanted and now its very droopy and I am afraid it will die… Gosh these Gardenias are sensitive. Hopefully this will help.. Thanks again.
