It's not clicking with me. Why the hell would I go run out and buy ferilizer after seeing this? People are likely not going to remember what this was an ad for...but maybe that's just me

Q: Why the hell would I go run out and buy ferilizer after seeing this?

A: Maybe because you aren't a farmer.

Ah, I think it really is advertising a fertilizer. I was confused. I agree that this artwork may be too strong and off topic for such a client. It's good to be different but not so different that you're making people confused.

Who's in charge at this agency?

You need to crack that whip and get these guys to tie everything together at concept stage before you let them run wild like this.

Loads of potential to kick ass, but just off brand here.

It's like they had this idea in their head and REALLY wanted to use it...but got stuck campaigning for a Fertilizer company and decided to use it anyway.

That's exactly the same, and loads better.
