Fertilizer isn't a problem when used carefully, but unfortunately all too often we use too much fertilizer, or apply it at the wrong time. It then can easily wash into storm drains and flow untreated into our bays or streams, resulting in extra algae and aquatic plant growth, including red tide. This harms our water quality and makes boating, fishing, and swimming unpleasant. In 2007 the Sarasota County Commission approved an ordinance prohibiting the use of fertilizers containing Nitrogen and/or Phosphorus during June through September.
See Ordinance No. 2007-062

Our scientific team at locally-owned FLORIKAN has developed SummerSafe™, a fertilizer free of Nitrogen and Phosphorus for use on turf, ornamental, and landscape plants. Perfect for keeping grass, palms, trees, ferns, perennials, ground cover, and flowering and woody ornamentals healthy and green all summer long, SummerSafe™ is high in Potash and Magnesium for feeding for up to 4 Months.
