Does anyone know where to find Osmocote in Canada. I have looked in Canadian Tire, Home Depot, and Walmart, and they don't have it here in North Bay. They all have SmartCote, which is made by a different company, and is sort of similar. I emailed the company, and asked them if it would work submerged in a pond on the bottom of a waterlily pan as per Joyce's method, and they replied:
"Smartcote is like osmocote but it is not something that we would recommend
in a pond situation. Smartcote is release with moisture. In a pond
situation the fertilizer would be exposed to a lot of moisture all the
time which would release the fertilizer quicker than intended."
Has anyone ever tried using Smartcote?
Thanks,
Bill
