That means just like the numbers: Up - Down - All Around The first number is for the green you see. The second number is for the roots below ground The third number is for EVERYTHING. Anyway that's the way I learned it and I have been able to remember what the numbers mean that way. Those numbers are on everything you buy that has something in it for your lawn or garden. The way I like to remember it is :
Put your thumb in an up position and say UP, then point your thumb down
and say DOWN, then stick your finger up and circle the air.

That means just like the numbers:
Up – Down – All Around

The first number is for the green you see.
The second number is for the roots below ground
The third number is for EVERYTHING.

Anyway that’s the way I learned it and I have been able to remember
what the numbers mean that way. Those numbers are on everything
you buy that has something in it for your lawn or garden.
