Anyone have experience with this fertilizer? I purchased a big old cactus last year, and the previous owner swears by it. I haven't had much luck with fertilizer in that...I just messed it up.

Was this supposed to have a photo? For what it’s worth for cacti and succulents I use the miracle gro succulent fertilizer.

I've heard good things, but never tried fish fertilizer myself.

I have an aquarium so I use the waste water (diluted 4:1 with tap) and Espoma Indoor liquid fertilizer (diluted to 50% of recommended dose)
