Re: Fw: Alfala pellets

 

Don't confuse the alflafa pellets used for horse feed with rabbit pellets.


Horse feed is just alfalfa. Rabbit pellets are mostly alfalfa but also have ground corn (a root growth inhibitor) and salt in them.

Alfalfa pellets are alfalfa grass (legume) which is compressed into pellets..it has a high protein level.  We give it to some of our horses that need  extra protein in their diet.

Hi All
Hope you all had a successful siberian iris year.Mine was pretty disappointing .Hardly any bloomed for me.
The question is ,why. I know some have outgrown their space and need splitting ,which I will be doing soon,but the others all had their fair share of sun and lots of water.So is the problem in the soil?.I read in articles written by American growers   that alfalfa pellets are good for them ,.On looking up on the internet ,alfalfa pellets is an animal food made from herbs.I thought alfalfa meant chicken poo pellets,which I use too.Can someone enlighten me on this theory and how to apply it please.
Many thanks
Iris Clarke
