RA-PID-GRO PLANT FOOD 
Every order can and should include 5 or 10 Ibs. of RA-PID-GRO, the ap- 
proved formula for a liquid plant food. 
RA-PID-GRO contains both Vitamin B1 and B2, but separately or com- 
bined, these vitamins do not supply all the nourishment required by plant life. 
While vitamins have a definite value in the promotion of root growth, it is 
necessary that other food elements which nature has provided for the develop- 
ment and growth of plant life be included. Therefore, to the vitamins in 
RA-PID-GRO are added eleven other needed food elements. RA-PID-GRO 
has been called ‘The Miracle Plant Food’ because of the phenomenal results 
obtained by this almost perfect combination. 
RA-PID-GRO contains no inert materials (sand, cocoanut shells or brick 
dust). Every bit is 100% plant food and when applied in solution it is imme- 
diately absorbed by the plant roots. No waiting for weeks to obtain growth or 
color. RA-PID-GRO gets results in an amazingly short time. 
RA-PID-GRO is also called “The Plant Blood Donor’’ because it is imme- 
diately taken in by the plant feeders and sustains life and develops growth. 
The principle of this food is to feed the plant itself, not the earth. A 
healthy plant will itself feed the earth, and healthy plants are produced by 
RA-PID-GRO which is composed only of the purest chemicals, vitamins and 
hormones. 
EACH POUND of RA-PID-GRO makes 176 pounds of liquid fertilizer 
or plant food when water is added. Thus, many transportation dollars are saved. 
RA-PID-GRO insures success, for it speeds up production and assures an 
abundant crop. Many gardens are in cramped quarters. RA-PID-GRO will make 
the yield of that small space compare more than favorably with that of much 
larger gardens which have not been fed. 
All plant food must be in liquid form before it is available to the plants. 
When RA-PID-GRO is applied according to directions a rainfall is not neces- 
sary to make the food available to the plant. 
Assure your customers of the Best possibilities of a 100% successful plant- 
ing by dipping them in a solution of RA-PID-GRO before planting.
