INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT (IPM)
We use a non-chemical method to control pest populations. Basically we use beneficial insects to control the bad insects. The goal of IPM is not necessarily to eradicate or eliminate pests, but to strengthen and stabilize the ecosystem so that conditions are favorable for plants and unfavorable for pests. WE DO NOT USE NEONICOTINOIDS!
PINEY RIDGE SOIL BLEND
We have our own special blend, custom made for your container planting with good water retention and good drainage. Your plants will thrive all season!
PINEY RIDGE EXCLUSIVE
