Hi-Yield Grower's Special Fertilizer 12-6-6 (30 lb) is a balanced, slow-release plant food formulated for trees, shrubs, ornamentals and container plants to deliver steady nutrients without harsh spikes.

Whether you tend a landscape, specimen shrubs or potted ornamentals, consistent feeding makes plants healthier and more resilient. This granular 12-6-6 formula supplies nitrogen, phosphate and potash in proportions suited for general maintenance and vigor, with a slow-release nitrogen component that reduces the risk of overfeeding. The 30-pound bag provides ample product for seasonal care of multiple plants across beds and containers.

How will this fertilizer affect my shrubs and trees?

Applied at the recommended times, the fertilizer supports sustained growth, helping foliage and roots develop through spring and fall. The nutrient mix is balanced to avoid excessive foliage at the expense of root or bloom health. Follow label rates for root-zone application to ensure even distribution and absorption.

• Contains 12% nitrogen for steady leaf growth and maintenance
• 6% phosphate to support root strength and overall vitality
• 6% soluble potash to aid stress tolerance and structural development
• Slow-release nitrogen lessens the chance of fertilizer burn

What steps should I take for potted plants and containers?

Container-grown specimens need smaller, more frequent feedings because potting media flushes nutrients faster. Use the product sparingly on pots and follow the one teaspoon per 6-inch pot guideline to maintain balanced nutrition without salt build-up. Reapply about every six weeks during the active growing season for consistent results.

• Measure 1 teaspoon for each 6-inch diameter pot
• Apply approximately every 6 weeks while plants are actively growing
• Mix lightly into topsoil or water in to reach the root zone
• Avoid over-application; always follow label directions

When should I feed trees and large shrubs with this product?

For landscape trees and shrubs, schedule applications to match their growth cycle—typically early spring before active growth and again in late fall to support recovery and root development. Broadcast or band the granules around the drip line, then water in to move nutrients into the root zone. Consult the label for specific rates according to plant size to optimize results and minimize waste.

• Apply in early spring and late fall for seasonal support
• Spread evenly under the branch drip line for mature plants
• Water after application to activate nutrient release
• Refer to label directions for quantity by plant size

How do I store and handle the 30 lb bag safely?

Keep the bag sealed and stored in a cool, dry area away from children and pets to preserve effectiveness and prevent accidental exposure. Granular fertilizers are stable when kept dry; avoid freezing or prolonged wet conditions which can cause caking. Use protective gloves when spreading and wash hands after handling.

• Store in a dry, ventilated location out of reach of children and pets
• Keep bag sealed to prevent moisture absorption and caking
• Use gloves and avoid inhaling dust when applying
• Dispose of empty packaging according to local regulations
