Sales boost provided by plant feeding products
 

Garden plant feeding product sales are the feature of the GTN Garden Products chart this week as keener gardeners prepare for the season ahead.  There are eight “straights” lines in the Top 50 and six of them are either re-entries or new entries.

  • Westland Organic Chicken Manure Pellets, 2.25kg, are the highest climber of the week – up 21 places to No 4.
  • Westland Fish Blood and Bone, 3.5kg, is the highest re-entry at No 13.
  • Highest new entry of the week is 16.5cm Orchid Pot Saucers from Growth Technology.
