I've used it a lot. I get the one with the minor elements in it. The only reason I didn't use it this year is because I got a 50# bag of osmacote!

Dynamite is actually a commercial product that is called Nutricote. The benefit to it is that it doesn't release nutrients until the soil temperature is 70 degrees or over, so it's not just washed out of the soil in cooler weather.

I've used it for years, and quite prefer it to Osmocote.

I agree with junkyardgirl, Dynamite IS Nutricote, it is just repackaged by some people in Florida and the price is tripled. I use 360 day 18-6-8 with minors on all my palms and have used it for 18 years... god, it's been 18 years already....anyway, the green jug is the same as 180 day 18-6-8, so unless you go out and buy the Nutricote itself, the green jug is just as good. The problem is that you can get a 50 pound bag of the 360 day stuff for about $52 right now and I think those 2 pound tubes are like $6 now?
I use Nutricote for all kinds of things and is certainly good for a general use fertilizer, but there again, with 360 day, hit ewverything in early spring and you are good for the whole year. It takes about 2 months to reach maximum release, so in early spring or late winter, you apply the stuff so it is kicking it out by mid March. (for me anyway in central Florida)
Nutricote IS better because it releases by temperature where Osmocote, works through Osmosis and can release too much fertilizer at one time when we have 4 inch rains and is more inconsistant for us in the rainy Florida times.

Where do you buy the large quantity of Nutricote? I can't seem to find any in my area.

When I belonged to the Orchid Society, they used to say that the Nutricote/Dynamite fertilizer is better because the Osmacote capsules explode after a while which releases too much fertilizer to delicate plants. That's why I have switched. I prefer the balanced formulation for most plants and I use the high nitrogen formulation for foliage plants only.

I would like to know where to buy the Nutricote in bulk also. Thanks.

The company that sells it here in Central Florida is called Florikan. I have the link below that will give you the addresses and phone numbers in Apopka and Sarasota.

I use Nuticote and it is great, especially in our sandy soils. It releases nutrients slowly. There are many different types, depending on what you want. Check it out.

Here is a link that might be useful: Florikan

Thank you all for the helpful information. Looks like this is a great product which should help all my plants. My brugs especially need some help! Will be getting it today and feeding this afternoon!

I have been using Dynamite also for over a year and a half. I use it on all my Fruit trees and flowers, potted and In-ground and I really have had excellent results...

Cycadjungle,I also would like to know where to get the #50 lb bag of Nutricote(360) day...Please share (o: where we can purchase, all I have ever seen in my area is the small #2 lb in H. depot and Walmart. Thanks in advance!!

I always order a pallet from Florikan every spring
for our Rare Plant Network.
Sometimes it's hard coming up
with the number of bags we need to
order to get the delivery and best price.
Another product our club uses is a Lesco 13-13-13.
You can find it at Home Depot for about $20........cheryl

The link that tom123 sent would be the same place I get mine. I usually go to Apopka, but when I go down I-75 for some reason, I pop into the office in Sarasota because they are right off the interstate (Fruitville Rd. exit). Most times though, they deliver for free for a minimum order amount, so I get several bags at the same time I make an order for containers. You always have to check current prices for containers because sometimes a place that was more expensive last month might be cheaper this month, but consistantly, Florikan has been about 10% cheaper for their containers than the other two supply places I use.

I just got ALOT of the Dynamite yesterday--both the Flowers and Veggies and the All purpose. Anyone in or near Jax wanting some just contact me for directions!
