well it depends
i have used it in the past and its a crap shoot
depending on where it comes from
it was reportedly 8 years old but sometimes it's been disturbed
or it's in proximity to a field where wind has blown many seeds into it.
this year i have switched to a different type
typically when you fertilize your fertilizer only reaches about 10%
of the plants roots but when you foliar feed by spraying the leaves with a water soluble fertilizer you get 90% utilization.

if you know of a large willow tree you can cut a bunch (50) of 24 inch long branch ends and place them in a bucket of water for a week.
this liquid can be reused as a type of fertilizer because the cuttings release a root stimulant that will increase root growth 100%.
