No, Osmocote is not "organic". But it is extremely slow in its release of macronutrients. Applied sparingly, it can provide excellent results for the grower that wants to use the "K.I.S.S." method with fewer trips to the grow site. I've done guerrilla grows with this product several times and seen high quality yields with as little as 2 tablespoons/plant of 19-6-12 Osmocote for the ENTIRE season and 6 total visits to the site from installation to harvest. While this may be purely anecdotal evidence since my native soils may be slightly better than others, I've seen little benefit in weekly trips to check on them unless spider mites or other pests are in season (hot, dry conditions). Ask your plants if they can determine a noticeable difference between organic NPK and synthetic NPK and you might be surprised at their stoic response. The phosphorous and potassium are mined from the ground, the nitrogen is extracted from the air that we all breathe. Hard to get more "organic" than that.
and Im pretty sure your well overpaying. 12 part nutrient line? Seems like a clever marketing scam to me
