Bone meal is a natural fertilizer made from ground animal bones, typically from cattle or fish. It is rich in essential nutrients, particularly phosphorus and calcium, which are vital for plant growth. Gardeners often use bone meal to improve soil quality and promote strong root development in plants. This organic amendment is commonly added to garden beds, potted plants, and lawns. It can help enhance flowering and fruiting in various plants, making it a popular choice among gardeners. Bone meal is slow-releasing, meaning its nutrients are available to plants over an extended period, ensuring sustained growth.
