4. The Unwelcome In-Laws : SeaShield + Diffuser  

Do you spend the holidays counting down the minutes until your in-laws leave? Well do we have a perfect gift for you: give them an aromatherapy diffuser and load that puppy with 10 drops of SeaShield. Nothing says “Time to leave! See you in 364 days!” like the pungent odor of cold-processed fish hydrolysate filling the guest room. Sure, you’ll have to put up with the smell after they leave, but on the plus side, your soil fungi will be delighted.

5. The Old Schooler : Sap Analysis

For that special curmudgeon who thinks soil tests will tell them everything they need to make actionable management decisions, or [gasp!] flies fully blind into their nutritional program, get them a set of Sap Analysis from Crop Health Labs, and prepare their mind to be blown. Excess Potassium? Immobile Iron? Non-available Manganese? A new world of understanding awaits, old friend.

6. The Neophyte : Plant Health Pyramid printable Infographic 

For that novice in your life who just doesn’t understand how healthy plants can resist pests and diseases, get them a full-color copy of our Plant Health Pyramid Infographic! Better yet, print out a bunch of copies, tape them together, and wrap your other gifts in them. Bonus: you don’t have to spend a dime on this gift! 

Upgrade pick: To really drive your point home, upgrade this gift to sap-guided full-spectrum foliar nutrition. 

Free!!

7. The Hoarder : Rejuvenate + BioDigester 

Do you despair of a loved one with hoarding problem? Someone surrounded by stacks of newspapers and magazines, or [gasp!] mounds of intact crop residue? Fear not! Give them some Rejuvenate and BioDigester, and watch their hoard melt away into stable humic substances. Ahhhhh, much better.

8. The Person who has Everything : Precision Nutrition Blend

Sure they may have all the latest books, gadgets, and toys, but do they have a tote full of mineral nutrition that’s been precisely formulated for their exact real-time crop needs as determined sap analysis, that’s been pre-blended and is ready to apply hassle-free the minute it arrives? They may have an iPhone 17 Pro, but I bet they don’t have that! 

Nothing will excite that impossible-to-please person on your list like seeing an LTL freight truck pull up on Christmas morning with a red bow atop an IBC of precision blended AEA nutrition.
