Helpful information about castings:
Chitinase Production: Earthworms produce chitinase, and their digestive process transfers it into their castings.
Plant Absorption: When you apply castings to soil, plants absorb these beneficial microorganisms and enzymes, including chitinase, into their tissues.
Pest Deterrence: When pests (like aphids, spider mites, or whiteflies) feed on the plant's sap, they ingest the chitinase.
Exoskeleton Dissolution: The enzyme dissolves their chitin-based exoskeletons, leading to their death.
Why we choose this pre blended product on Hotchkiss Flower Farm to reduce costs.
We have found this product contains all of the beneficial soil amendments we are always wanting to add to our soil or seeds starting recipes. Every year, prior to switching to this product, our costs to purchase individual product to amend was astronomical, even in bulk. Things like feather & bone meal, alfalfa meal, glacial rock dust, castings, compost, perlite, coco coir, peat, gypsum, humus, greensand were always in the lineup of purchasing individually. It adds up fast. This product already contains all of those individual ingredients, which reduces costs substantially. More than that, it reduced a lot of time spent measuring and adding those individual products, or time making custom seed starting blends. Time spent ordering and taking inventory was also freed up by using this one product that has it all and simplifies things. Using this product along with Premium Liquid Extract throughout the season has also eliminated the costs of needing to purchase organic pesticides. There has also been an improvement in water retention when used as a soil amendment, reducing time spent watering throughout the season. When it is all added up at the end of the year, hands down, switching to this product was an efficient, cost effective way to grow quality flowers.
