    Started using this a little over a year ago on a small pine tree that wasn't looking so good. You add it to the soil every 6 months so I have just added the 3rd dose of it this week. The tree is already looking so much better even after only a few doses. This comes as stakes that you hammer into the soil about 3 feet from the trunk of the tree in 4 evenly spaced places around the tree. There is a removable cap that you use to protect the top of the stake when hammering it in. It goes in a lot easier if the soil around the tree is wet and soft so if it hasn't rained recently you will need to water the ground to soften it up before adding this. The only "Con" I have is that some of the stakes arrived broken. I don't know if they shipped that way or if they broke during shipping. Not a huge deal it just means you will have to dig a small hole to put the stakes in, instead of just being able to hammer them into the dirt. I will be buying these again and have already added installing them to my routine yard card "To Do" lists.

    After reading the reviews we used a wooden stake to start the hole to put the fertilizer stake in. The two citrus trees sprouted new growth and new leaves within a week. We used these last year successfully. These are young trees, however, so they shouldn't bear fruit for a few years.

    Always a trusted fertilizer. I’ve used these for years and they work well, as long as you water a day before, so the ground is soft enough so you can pound them in.

    I picked up 3 fruit tree saplings around 3' tall that someone had put out by the curb and planted them way in the back of the property. The apple had looked most promising but has been the slowest grower with very few leaves over the past 3 years. But I never put these in as they should have been and the soil is rocky. The other two are peach trees and the main part of both died and are surviving with suckers off the roots. One is near useless and off the edge and might not survive. The other with two suckers has one that is straight up and tied to a pole and doing well this year. Even though it's a little late for the spikes, it's better than never. They don't get full sun and I didn't want to have to water them as much anyway with the rocky soil. I had to put up wire around these saplings to keep the deer from chewing on them, which is what happened to the apple tree. The wire is only 4' and the peach is already past the top. Insects are another issue, I would have liked these spikes to help with. I have some dry spread for the insects, but isn't meant for young trees. 3 spikes were broken but I used a small shovel anyway as the spikes would have broken in the rocky soil. Being what they are and looking back, I should have done my homework as I might have had much larger and healthier trees by now.
