Soil Candy's CRAB MEAL 4-3-0 delivers slow-release nitrogen, phosphate, chitin and calcium. Chitin encourages the growth of bacteria that produce chitinase, an enzyme known to suppress nematodes and many other pests and a natural growth stimulant for plants. The coarse texture of crab meal improves soil aeration, drainage and overall soil tilth.
