IMO can just be applied to the soil and protected from direct sunlight with a little mulch and you're good to go with any application!
And, that said—we can't help ourselves but share hot tips for a variety of alternative supports since we have rockstars near and far using IMO creatively with great success.
So, here are some additional tips based on the most popular application methods.
If you're a rancher or treating to pastures, or have access to a sprayer—
Liquid IMO💧will make your IMO go a lot farther. Here's a video (below) to get you started. You'll want to apply at an absolute mimimum rate of 20 gallons per acre. (And, as a reminder, more is more! You don't have to skimp, and if you apply more, your results may increase.)
If you run a golf course or are growing indoors—
We recommend a weekly application. Your choice if you want to utilize solid or liquid IMO. 💧
If you're using it as a compost starter—

If you're utilizing IMO for no-smell cat litter at home—
