Product Description
A to Z Minerals- A Complete Organic Fertilizer A Source of Minerals & Trace Elements Azomite is the name of a special rock in Utah. Early this century geological prospector Rollin Anderson found deposits of montmorillonite clay in a valley south of Salt Lake City. U.S. Bureau of Mines analysis showed the clay is similar to Chilean/Peruvian caliche rocks from which much of the world’s nitrate was mined. Anderson ground montmorillonite as fine as possible, then put it in his garden. Results were amazing and nearly immediate. Minerals in Azomite are necessary to optimal metabolism in living things. Ground to dust, minerals are small enough to pass through cell walls of organisms.

I don’t think my method for growing cereal grass can be considered strictly hydroponic but it IS soil-free, i.e., I use a combination of Hoffman vermiculite and Hoffman Canadian sphagnum moss (it’s chemical-free–you want to watch for that if you’re planning to consume what you grow). I’ve also been using SeaStart kelp fertilizer which does a great job but given that I’m not using soil and rely on supplemental lighting, I wanted to try taking fertilizing up a notch. I use Handy Pantry grain and ran across AZOMITE (sorry, I don’t have a small caps font) on their Web site. I liked what I read and on that basis, decided to give it a shot.
My growing trays are smaller than standard flats so I mix just a tablespoon of AZOMITE with my dry planting medium, after which I wet it down with my kelp solution (to which I now add 5 drops/pint of Nutri-Biotic Maximum GSF to help control mold). And it really did provide a boost–I’m growing gorgeous, healthy grass that’s (I imagine) as full of juice as grass can be (which admittedly isn’t much–it’s grass, after all) and that’s ready for harvest just over a week after I first soak the seeds for pre-sprouting.
My suggestion is that if you’re looking for a second crop from grass that has already been cut, give it a watering containing a second dose of AZOMITE as the initial tablespoon is pretty much utilized by the first crop. Don’t be afraid to combine AZOMITE with another safe, organic fertilizer such as SeaStart–they complement each other very nicely.
Wheatgrass is something of a pain to cultivate at home and AZOMITE has really contributed to my own success, in spite of my brown thumb. I can only imagine that it works equally well, if not better, on plants that aren’t as fussy.
