Do you care about the planet and everything that’s in it? Your little spot in this world can be a launching pad for the good, healthy environmentally friendly work we do…or it can be the launching pad for non-organic chemicals that poison our planet and last for an extended time in the soil and atmosphere. Organics do the job that they are intended for then dissipate after a much shorter time, thus leaving a much smaller footprint.

Plant Health Organics is the only 100% Organic land care company in Central NJ that does exactly what we do. There are companies that do some of what we do, but not the extent of PHO. Companies, big and small, that apply both Non-Organics and Organics cannot claim that their Organic applications are truly 100% Organic. It is impossible to clean all equipment perfectly, therefore the NON-ORGANIC residue that persists infects the Organic material being applied rendering it now NON-ORGANIC.

When you apply Non-Organic fertilizer, not only are you using synthetic forms of nitrogen(the element that provides the green color), but these Non-Organic forms of fertilizer are quick release therefore they don’t last as long. When you apply Non-Organic fertilizer, it only feeds the grass plant, not the soil, therefore it infiltrates the soil profile MUCH quicker than Organic fertilizer, therefore the lawn needs to be fertilized much more often as it will start to lose its dark green pigment. Organic fertilizer is slow-released. Its components are all derived from natural, organic material including feather meal, poultry meal, bone meal, etc. It feeds the soil. Over time, the soil releases the nutrients slowly, lasting much longer and providing a much longer lasting green pigment.

Most material applied, whether Organic on Non-Organic has an EPA Registration number assigned to it. That number requires the material to be referred to as a Pesticide therefore technically, even Organic “pesticides” have a recommendation that the areas sprayed not be entered or disturbed for 72 hours. Plant Health Organics asks you to at least allow the Organic product to dry before entering the area.
