Jobe's Fruit Tree Fertilizer Spikes deliver a continuous supply of nutrients underground, exactly where the tree needs them, with an 8-11-11 formula built for healthy growth and abundant fruit. The premeasured spikes make fertilizing effortless: no measuring, no mixing, no mess, and no wasteful runoff. Just drive them into the soil around the tree's dripline and the slow-release formula keeps feeding all season long. Each bag contains 5 spikes (net wt. 20 oz \/ 567 g).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePremeasured spikes\u003c\/strong\u003e — no measuring, no guesswork, no hazardous loose granules to handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeeds at the roots\u003c\/strong\u003e — nutrients are delivered underground at the dripline, where the feeder roots take them up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlow-release, all season\u003c\/strong\u003e — a steady supply of nutrients instead of one quick flush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo runoff or waste\u003c\/strong\u003e — the spikes release below the surface, so nutrients stay in the root zone rather than washing away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8-11-11 fruit-and-citrus formula\u003c\/strong\u003e — higher phosphorus and potassium to support flowering, fruiting, and root strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater the soil thoroughly before inserting the spikes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpace the spikes evenly around the tree's dripline (the outer edge of the branches, where feeder roots are most active).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrive each spike into the ground with the plastic driving cap; insert below the soil surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply at the start of the growing season; reapply through the season per the package directions for continuous feeding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Jobe's\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormula: 8-11-11 (slow-release tree \u0026amp; shrub fertilizer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuaranteed analysis: Total Nitrogen 8%, Available Phosphate (P\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003eO\u003csub\u003e5\u003c\/sub\u003e) 11%, Soluble Potash (K\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003eO) 11%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm: premeasured fertilizer spikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCount: 5 spikes per bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet weight: 20 oz (1 lb 4 oz \/ 567 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest for: fruit trees, citrus trees, and other trees \u0026amp; shrubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: 02012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Do the Numbers 8-11-11 Mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three numbers on every fertilizer are its N-P-K ratio — the guaranteed percentages of the three primary plant nutrients by weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8 — Nitrogen (N):\u003c\/strong\u003e drives leafy, green growth.
