Next Step™ Seed Starter Fertilizer
An all-natural fertilizer for germinating seeds
Our all-natural Next Step™ Seed Starter Fertilizer is formulated to give your seeds the nutrients they need for optimum health during the most important stage of growth. It's made of fermented sugar beet molasses, rich in humic acids, and organic matter, so you can be sure your plants are getting nothing but natural goodness. Our researchers found Next Step outperformed other natural and synthetic fertilizers when used with our All Roots™ Seed Starting Kit. The grow plugs provided in the kit contain enough minerals and fertilizers to sustain seedlings for two weeks. After that, add Next Step™ Fertilizer Solution to the seed starting tray.
