i like the liquid organic indoor plant food as a good general fertilizer from The Grow Co. It’s very concentrated and lasts a while and it’s really gentle

i found something called grove co would that work?

I agree with eatyacarbs. Any organic - fish/seaweed based is a good general fert to have. Its gentle so you don’t have to worry as much about burning your roots from over fertilizing.

If you are choosing one that’s fish based beware some can smell AWFUL. So maybe do some research on which have a less potent smell.
