Neversink Blend 6-1-7

Premium Organic Fertilizer for Steady Growth, Root Strength & Soil Vitality

The Neversink Blend 6-1-7 is a balanced, biologically active organic fertilizer crafted for year-round productivity and long-term soil health. With a moderate nitrogen level (6%), low phosphorus (1%), and generous potassium (7%), this mix supports steady green growth, strong roots, and robust fruit and flower production-without burning plants or overfeeding.

Originally developed for the no-till systems at Neversink Farm, this blend is ideal for biointensive vegetable gardens, no-dig beds, polycultures, and market garden systems that rely on regular, low-dose feeding for sustained productivity.

Key Characteristics

• Ideal Nutrient Ratio for Continuous Production
  The 6-1-7 ratio is perfect for salad greens, root crops, and fruiting vegetables grown in high-turnover systems. The modest nitrogen feeds leafy growth without tipping vegetative balance, while the high potassium supports flowering, fruiting, and overall plant vigor.

• Best for No-Till, No-Dig, and Regenerative Systems
  Crafted with soil biology in mind, the blend contains ingredients that feed both plants and microbes. It's ideal for top-dressing or incorporation in systems where soil disturbance is minimized and fertility is built from the surface down.
