Product Description

Natural, Slow-Release Phosphorus for Roots, Blooms and New Plantings

Old Cobblers Farm™ Wicked Growth Rock Phosphate 0-12-0 is a natural, slow-release phosphorus amendment for lawns and gardens. The 0-12-0 analysis is deliberately single-purpose: 0% nitrogen, 12% phosphate and 0% potassium — all phosphorus. Phosphorus is the nutrient most associated with root development, flowering and fruiting, and with helping new plants and lawns establish a strong foundation.

Because it is rock phosphate — a natural, mined mineral — the phosphorus releases slowly, providing sustained availability over time rather than a quick hit. That makes it well suited to building soil phosphorus and supporting root systems during establishment, rather than to fast green-up. It is a phosphorus-only product, not a complete fertilizer, so pair it with a nitrogen source (and potassium where needed) when your plants need full feeding.

Use it when starting new lawns or gardens, when transplanting, and where a soil test shows your soil is low in phosphorus. Phosphorus does not green a lawn — that job belongs to nitrogen — so think of this as a root-and-foundation product rather than a color product.

Where to use it: new lawn and garden establishment, transplanting and bed preparation, and established plantings where a soil test shows phosphorus is needed.

Key Benefits

  Phosphorus for Roots: 12% phosphate supports root development and a strong foundation for plants.

  Supports Flowering & Fruiting: Phosphorus is the nutrient most associated with flower and fruit production.

  Natural, Slow-Release: Rock phosphate is a mined mineral that releases phosphorus slowly for sustained availability.

  Ideal at Establishment: Especially useful when starting new lawns and gardens or transplanting.

  Builds Soil Phosphorus: A long-term amendment for soils that a test shows are low in phosphorus.

  Single-Purpose Simplicity: One nutrient, clearly labeled — add it alongside your nitrogen feed as needed.

  Easy to Apply: Spread and work into the soil; water in gently without causing runoff.

Best Uses

  New lawn establishment (at seeding/sodding, where P is permitted)

  New garden beds and bed preparation

  Transplanting trees, shrubs and perennials

  Flowering and fruiting plants needing phosphorus

  Soils a test shows are low in phosphorus

  Building soil phosphorus over the long term

Important Notes / Safety

  Soil Test First: Phosphorus should be added based on need — a soil test tells you whether your soil is actually low in P.

  Phosphorus Is Often Restricted: Many states and municipalities restrict phosphorus on established lawns to protect waterways. Use mainly for new establishment or a documented deficiency, and always check your local rules.

  It Won’t Green Your Lawn: Green-up comes from nitrogen — this 0-12-0 product has none. Pair it with a nitrogen feed for color and growth.

  Not a Complete Fertilizer: Phosphorus-only — combine with nitrogen (and potassium) sources for full feeding.

  Apply & Water In Gently: Work into the soil and water in lightly without causing runoff; phosphorus runoff is an environmental concern.

  Conventional Product / Storage: A Wicked Growth product (not organic). Store cool, dry and sealed, away from children and pets.

Why Choose Old Cobblers Farm™?

We like products you can read off the bag. Rock Phosphate 0-12-0 does one job well: it supplies natural, slow-release phosphorus to support roots, blooms and new plantings, and to build soil phosphorus over time. Add it alongside your nitrogen feed when plants need the rest. (We describe how to use the product, not guaranteed results.)

Application Instructions

-Rate: follow the product label; the supplied guidance suggests about 1 lb per 1,000 sq ft as a starting point (confirm on the label)
-Method: spread evenly with a broadcast or drop spreader and work into the soil
-At planting: mix into the backfill or bed before planting/seeding for best root contact
-Watering: water in gently to move it into the soil — avoid runoff
-Timing: spring or fall; ideally at establishment or per a soil test
Step by step
1. Test your soil first — add phosphorus only if your soil is low, and check local phosphorus rules.
2. Apply per the label rate (the copy suggests ~1 lb per 1,000 sq ft as a starting point — confirm on the label).
3. Spread evenly with a spreader and work into the soil, or mix into beds/backfill at planting.
4. Water in gently to move it into the soil; avoid watering to runoff.
5. Pair with a nitrogen feed (and potassium if needed) when plants need full nutrition.
6. Reapply per the label and your soil-test results — rock phosphate works over the long term.
What not to do
Do not expect it to green your lawn (no nitrogen), do not apply phosphorus to established lawns where it is restricted, and do not water to the point of runoff.
