Organic Fertilizer
4 parts seed meal
1/4 part agricultural lime, finely ground
1/4 part gypsum
1/2 part dolomitic lime
1 part bone meal, rock phosphate or guano
1/2 part kelp meal or 1 part basalt dust
This is a good all purpose fertilizer, but continue to apply compost to build your soil. Fertilizer will not change the soil structure, so it is important for those of use with sandy or clay soils to regularly apply compost.

| Keep Adding Compost To The Garden |
what are your thoughts on manure tea? we have cows and goats and use the composted manure in our gardens. we feel the gardens benefit both from the nutrients and from the organic matter.
ReplyDeleteManure tea is very beneficial as a foliar spray. A good, quick pick me up for your plants. However, it does not change the soil consistency. I think that using manure tea and well composted manure is a good combination. Do be careful with the manure, too much can negatively affect root crops (potatoes especially).
