FERTILIZERS 
YOU CAN’T GET OUT WHAT YOU DON'T PUT IN. 
Hyponex. The concentrate for growing plants in chemical cul- 
ture. An excellent and complete food when used as a fertilizer. 
The new practical way to start seed is to sow it in sand, 
using Hyponex as a fertilizer. This way ‘damping off’ worries 
are eliminated. We know of no other plant food in any form

vigorous and strong. 1 lb. makes 100 gallons.
