Works great!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so surprised by how well this plant starter worked! So easy to use - add a squirt or two to a gallon of water (depending on what you're watering/growing) and water your plants with it! Mine popped up so much quicker than what they usually would have without this additive. Such a good product!

Pennington Plant Starter: A Green Thumb's Delight

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the moment I received a sample of Pennington Plant Starter, I knew my garden was in for a treat. This isn't just any plant food; it's like a gourmet meal for your greenery. I've tried my fair share of plant foods, but Pennington stands out like a sunflower in a field of grass. It's the difference between a home-cooked meal and fast food for plants. Other products did the job, but Pennington brought vigor and vitality to my plants that I ha...

My transplanted flowers look great!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in exchange for my honest review. It was great timing, because I was just about to transplant some flowers into my garden. I followed the directions by squeezing a dose into a gallon of water. The bottle makes it REALLY easy by having an accurate dosing method per squeeze rather than having to measure out into a measuring spoon. So much cleaner! Having not done this method before, I was nervous to soak the root ball (I d...

It didn't kill my plants!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only used it for a couple weeks so hard to tell the long term effects, but so far it hasn't caused any problems. I noticed a slightly faster growth rate on new seedlings, however not much change to established plants. I guess that's what it's made for. Overall, I think it's a good remedy to prime the soil correctly for newer plants. I'll continue to use to jumpstart my garden. A little goes a long way so only apply as directed.

Very easy to use!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you Pennington for the free plant starter! This product is designed very well and makes it easy to use. I like that one squeeze is equivalent to the right dose you need. I would definitely recommend this product and would buy it again in the future.

This is now my go to planter starter

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to transplant new growth and they thrive with the liquid starter. Even used on a unhealthy looking lemongrass plant I got at a local farm store. Brought it back to a luscious thick greenery.

Excellent Plant Starter!!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not known for being able to keep plants/flowers alive in the past. I was really happy to give this Pennington Plant Starter a try with some new plants I bought for the Spring to replant in the yard & for the porch. I bought two small potted flowers and repotted them to a planter and watered regularly with the Starter. The photos here are taken two weeks apart and the difference is fantastic!! I've been using the Starter on a couple of new h...

Great for transplants

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this when I transplanted my new spring plants into their own pot. Usually it takes a week or two to get the roots looking great. I used this product and the roots grew within three days. I was very impressed. I compared them to the plants that I did not use the product on. Their roots look thinner and shorter then the roots I added product to.

So far, so good!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised with the ease of use of this fertilizer! I tend to water my plants with a one or two gallon watering can, and it us so simple to add this fertilizer to my can! Just shake the bottle, flip the top open, and squeeze! The amount that you squeeze automatically stops when you've squeezed enough to mix with a gallon! It's like magic! Lol I am so excited to see what the results will be with my newly planted plants, and will ...
