RE: Organic Fertilizers

I'm a Milorganite user. I know, not organic, but natural. Have since I started gardening. Use it on lawns and in flower and shrub borders and in winter fertilization of trees. Sometimes, if I'm having a particularly pesky lawn problem, I'll use Ringer products, like Lawn Renewal. They can be hard to find, though.

I use Maxicrop Liquified Seaweed as a water soluble fertilizer or foliar feeder. It's available undiluted in gallon containers at a local health food store.

I use compost whenever I need to build up the soil in a bed or as a light mulch in early spring when plants are breaking ground. Sometimes I have my own, sometimes I have it come from a commercial landscape supply company and sometimes I buy it by the bag.
