Gorgeous photos!

It is so warm and balmy here in So Cal that I’m having a hard time keeping my mind on my work.

A while back, I posed a question about small, green, mostly round pellets I see scattered as fertilizer. It is not for hydration, but food. I can’t find out what it is, though I’ve searched high and low. I’m wondering if it is lawn fertilizer. If anyone has any ideas about what it is, let me know. Thanks! The mystery is really bugging me!

Thank you for your kind words. The green pellets you are seeing are more than likely lime or nitrogen, but I couldn’t say for sure without seeing the bag. Phosphorus is generally in the tan/pink/red range, but a manufacturer could coat any element with another color for their ‘brand’.
