Each prill combines NPK with 24% active carbon, 5% humic acid and a blend of mycorrhizal fungi and microbes to help roots access nutrients more efficiently. The slow-release design delivers consistent feeding over time, and the clean formulation contains no biosolids, PFAS, microplastics, or plastic coatings—making it suitable for a wide range of garden uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this fertilizer feed plants without causing nutrient spikes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGenius+ uses a slow-release matrix so nutrients are available gradually rather than all at once. That reduces the risk of fertilizer burn and supports steady growth across weeks, not days.
