Thanks
Thanks Caligrow. I'm getting advise from different forums and I intend to use the information to come up with a plan that will work fine for my needs.
I've never grown organic before because to me it seems hard to get the required amounts of N. P. K, , micro nutrients, and trace elements from organic sources. Man-made fertilizers have high N. P. K values such as 30, 10, 10, for example, and it seems impossible to get those high numbers from organic ferts. That's why I wanted to use bloodmeal and bone meal because these are organic with rather high percentages such as 15 for bloodmeal and 13 for bone meal. Some organic fertilizers are rated with small percentages of N, P, and K, such as 1.5, 1, and 5 ( I just made these numbers up, but you get the point) for example, and that hardly seems as though it would work, but many people use them and they claim that they work well. Do you or anyone else here understand how fertilizers with such low percentages of these elements work and provide enough of everything that the plants need?
Thanks again,
Alistair
