Theres something about this brand fertilizer compared to other organic brands, my avocado and mango produce more and slightly larger fruit, i just move the soil, spread this in the groove then cover with the soil. For fun i also sprinkled some in some sugarcane propagating in water and the speed at which they developed was surprising, placed a little in potted Bougainvillea and Hydrangea and they look healthy and are pushing out lots of blooms. I will test on grapes and strawberries, but this is a winner for me and i used less than directed.
Is this sale price? seems like normal price to me in Home Depot
Not a deal at all, HD (and Lowes IIRC) has it at this price and it isn't even on sale:

Well, the 16-Lb size is a bit difficult to find, but the 4-Lb size sells for $7 - $10 at other retailers. If you need 16-Lbs, I think this is a buy.

This is fine to use with other plants too (annuals, perennials, palms, veggies, etc) . Most plant-specific fertilizers are fine to use on other plants it's primarily marketing. Especially on Organics a percentage point here or there won't make much of a difference.

Wondering how is this labeled for citrus, Because citrus likes a lot of nitrogen, you want to purchase a fertilizer with at least a 2-1-1 ratio, or twice as much nitrogen as phosphorus and potassium. This is just opposite with 3-5-5.

You are correct and point out this is not a very good deal/product. BTW, deal posted by staff, seem like people don't post deal here anymore.

Great info. I have a mandarin, grapefruit, pomegranate, orange and lemon trees so I will grab a bag. My pom, grapefruit and mandarin produce like mad and I don't have them tons of fertilizer as it is.
