Jobe's Organics Fruit & Citrus Tree Spikes 15‑Count, 4‑Pack (9-12-12) Slow‑Release Root Feeding

Jobe's Organics Fruit & Citrus Tree Spikes deliver slow-release 9-12-12 nutrients in a convenient spike format to feed fruit and citrus trees all season without runoff.

These four value packs contain 15 spikes each of the 9-12-12 formula specifically blended for fruit and citrus trees. The spikes are an easy, no-mess way to supply balanced levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium directly to the root zone so trees get steady nutrition over time. Made in the USA, these spikes are formulated to minimize runoff and leaching compared with liquid feeds.

How do these spikes feed my fruit and citrus trees throughout the season?

The spikes release nutrients slowly as soil moisture dissolves them, providing consistent feeding for weeks. This steady delivery helps support leaf growth, flower set and fruit development when used according to label directions.

• Slow-release formulation activated by soil moisture
• Targets the root zone for efficient uptake
• Each spike provides weeks of nutrition
• Reduces nutrient loss from surface runoff

How do I use the spikes and how many does a tree need?

Insert spikes into the soil around the drip line of each tree, following the package spacing and depth instructions. The number of spikes depends on trunk diameter and tree size—larger trees typically require more spikes placed evenly around the root zone.

• Place spikes near drip line, not against the trunk
• Follow package directions for spacing and quantity per tree
• Use spikes at recommended intervals for seasonal feeding
• Water after placement if soil is dry to activate release

What makes the 9-12-12 formula suitable for fruit and citrus trees?

This N-P-K ratio balances nitrogen for foliage, phosphorus for root and flower support, and potassium for overall plant vigor and fruit quality. It’s designed to meet common nutritional needs of fruiting trees without excessive application of any single nutrient.

• Nitrogen supports healthy leaf and shoot growth
• Phosphorus supports root development and bloom set
• Potassium supports plant health and fruit development
• Balanced blend for established fruit and citrus trees

Who is this for? These Jobe's Organics value packs are made for home gardeners, small orchard owners and anyone who wants a low-maintenance way to feed multiple fruit or citrus trees. The pre-measured spikes remove guesswork and reduce mess, making them suitable for busy gardeners or those who prefer targeted soil nutrition.
