hi jean Ive just been and bought some tomato feed apparently it will do wonders says mum xx

We have a small wormery where I put peelings and manky salad leaves etc. This gives very little compost as it seems to all vanish to liquid, which is a very useful plant feed. I bottle it in old squash bottles and use it like baby bio., perhaps a bit more extravagantly!

thanks bob and shirley, im just doing the rounds of tomatoe feed now

psssst

if you want fertilizer..........save your tropical fish tank water........its likely loaded with nitrates.......

Bob

any compost will enrich the soil but may not do anything specific for individual plants. In the early days of our new build garden of the 1960.s I worked into the soil loads of bags of peat and later on cocoa shell . its all broken down to give a good quality soil . I still use things like miracle grow from the bottle as soil will use up its nutrients as time goes by

lol stary xx
thanks shirley, this one dont smell so maybe its ok what do you think xx

well horse manure is VERY good for the roses BUt you have to make sure it doesnt touch the actual plant cos it will burn it.
Cant stand the smell of it or the clods so i just use Rose fertilzer bought in the bottle

oops lol, i duno hun, but i went the school today for there planting day, a had to take a pot ans they filled it,
baby s, flashed his baby blues, and got three pots filled with tomatoes, spring onions and mixed salad leaves, oh and a bunch of chives free,

i hope they grow lol x

maybe, i was proudly showing my little garden and vegy patch to my mum, she asked what i was usuing, i told her it was compost manure with spent mushroom, hence the mushrooms growing in staed of the peas i planted, she said its the wrong stuff and its actually manure that you put on top of yuor roses and veg etc (IS SHE RIGHT) LOL oh nooooooooooo what have i done x
