Landscapers and homeowners are confronted with a wide variety of soil conditions, irrigation,
fertilizer requirements and plant variety when maintaining a property. The organic substances in Biosol
promote soil health. Soil health is the capacity of soil to function within ecosystem boundaries to
sustain biological productivity, maintain environmental health, promote plant growth and achieve a
healthy balance of good soil microorganisms.
It is important to add a high quality, stable organic material that is going to activate and reestablish
soil health to support long term plant growth for all plants. Biosol is an all-purpose, natural
organic fertilizer and soil amendment. Its high quality organic nutrients, organic substances and chitin
are the stable, long lasting nutrients that help build plant and soil health. The nutrients in Biosol
typically do not begin to release until 30 days after application, making Biosol a true slow release
product. These nutrients are the difference between Biosol and most other fertilizers on the market
today.

About Us
In 1987 Rocky Mountain Bio Products started with one organic product called “Biosol”, a natural organic product. Over several years we slowly added other high quality products to our product line. Biosol Forte was added as an economical alternative to Biosol, while producing the same great results. Earthgreen’s Menefee Humate, a micro nutrient and trace element product, was added to allow us to supply these important micro nutrients for those plant and soils that need it.
