Unhappily, when you apply convention
al fertilizers, much of the phosphate is
locked up through fixation in the soil.
□ Up to now, this has _ _
been fought by carefully | l^rVw
placing the phosphate
closer to the surface and
near each plant. Trouble
is, this leaves your phos
phorus supply "high and
dry" during the heat of
the summer. □ Or-
