Iā€™ve used it for many years. The only downside is chemical, lab created, fertilizers can leave salt/minerals buildup in the soil that has to be flushed with water each growing season to flush out all the salts. This is not a big problem. Organic fertilizers like manure, seaweed, algae, and compost, etc., also works. The fertilizerā€™s NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) numbers may be unbalanced, too low/high or unknown. Organic is the old school way and it worked for our ancestors. They didnā€™t need an NPK number. šŸ˜ There are many manufacturers pushing their specialty fertilizers. Use them if they work for you and you are happy with the results. Keep in mind more expensive does not necessarily mean a higher quality product. šŸŖ“šŸ€ --- _Planta-fƦllesskabet (https://getplanta.com). Alle kan lƦse med.
