"I've been a grower of bedding annuals, perennials and ornamentals since 1988. Our nursery has been a family business since 1964. Our experiences are many and we've seen and made all the mistakes over the past 40 years. We've also had some success.
For the past 9 years we've had great success seeking, marketing and growing a line of Heirloom Tomatoes. This line has brought us great joy and attention because of the hundreds of varieties we grow. Part of our program is to grow the plants and test the fruit for its taste and plant performance. Each year we test several different types of soils, fertilizers and additives to seek out the best performers.
One of these performers is John and Bob's Soil Optimizer.
We've had surprising experiences using products with humic acids which have shown that fruits grown with humic acids are sweeter and more flavorful.
I'm very pleased with your product, our test results currently find it to be the best organic soil improvement product on the market.
Keep up the great work."

"We set up several different experiments using different doses and different types of fertilizer.
All the plants that contained John and Bobs' Soil Optimizer grew rapidly, produced larger capes of foliage and superior, thick stems. Fruit size and production seems to be much greater than usual, and at a recent tasting, tomatoes grown with John and Bob's received higher ratings for flavor." |

"I've used John & Bob's at my home, at my growing grounds and at many customer's homes. It counteracts the most common problems of Valley soils and encourages beneficial microorganisms at the same time. it's potent, yet safe, and I recommend it to my customers constantly."

"We planted two Japanese Maples at the same time in the front of our house as a landscaping focal point. One of the Maples grew very quickly and appeared to be very healthy, with vibrant color. The other tree appeared stunted and grew only sparse foliage and never appeared like it would ever catch up to its twin.
We tried a number of different applications to try to improve the apparent health of the smaller Maple. Nothing worked and we were getting very frustrated - we even considered replanting. As a last chance effort, we applied John and Bob's Soil Optimizer to see if the quality of the soil was causing the difference in the trees. An amazing thing happened - over the next year, the stunted tree began to put on more and healthier foliage, its color improved dramatically and it began to close the size gap.
After two years, the difference in the two Japanese Maples has lessened considerably and we are no longer considering removing one. In fact, we have continued to apply John and Bob's twice a year and it is apparent that eventually the two trees will be of similar size, stature and health. They will visually appear "like twins". We have applied John and Bob's Soil Optimizer throughout the rest of our yard and in all of the beds. Our landscape has never looked better and appeared to be so healthy. There is no question in my mind that John and Bob's works, is safe, simple to apply, economical and makes a huge difference in the vitality of the landscape."

"John and Bob's Soil Optimizer has been a great addition to our Home and Garden department. The packaging allows for easy access to our customers (it's small enough to add to their cart with their regular grocery items), the developers are recognized as experts, and the price comparison to other soil treatments is a considerable savings."

"It’s been a year since I first applied John and Bob’s Soil Optimizer and I wanted to express my reaction to your product.
I applied Soil Optimizer in several areas of my yard, specifically in areas of established perennials and on sections of bare soil that had been unproductive in the 24 years I have lived in my home. My intention was to revitalize my older shrubs and ground covers, as well as improve the infertile soil so that it would be more tillable and prolific.
Positive results were realized sooner than I anticipated; a neighbor stopped one spring day to comment that my flowers were more colorful than they had ever been. As time passed, all of the shrubs in my yard became more robust and greener than in past years. On the infertile and crusty soil, it became much more friable and quickly supported growth where it had failed before.
Although, I am not a professional landscaper by any means, I have been an avid “green thumber” for 45 years. Our garden was the venue of one of Fresno’s major fundraising tours, as well as being featured on the weekly public television gardening program. In a word, I think John and Bob’s Soil Optimizer is OUTSTANDING!"
