GRO-FINE FLOWER & VEGETABLE SHOT

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “GRO‑FINE FLOWER & VEGETABLE SHOT” is dead and was abandoned by Knox Fertilizer Company, Inc., a corporation organized in Indiana, after the applicant failed to file a Statement of Use or an extension request following the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 001, covering fertilizers. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but it does establish that the owner once claimed rights to that exact phrase in the fertilizer field. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions granted up to the fifth extension, after which the abandonment notice was mailed. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history, so the record shows no visible enforcement activity. If you are considering a similar name for a product that is not a fertilizer, the closest concern would be in the fertilizer area; otherwise, the risk is lower but not eliminated.
