Growmore or Fish, Blood & Bone?
Tiny Clanger:
Looking a bit forward I need to replenish fertiliser. Usually use manure, but supplement with Growmore. All used up this season so I need to replenish. WHat I need to know is; is Growmore better than Fish Blood & Bone as a general fertiliser? :blob7:
Tee Gee:
The choice is your but here is some info to help you to decide:
Fish Blood & Bone is Organic with an NPK: 3 - 9 - 3
Growmore is a general purpose synthetic fertiliser with an NPK 7-7-7
I tend to use FB&B on foodstuff and GM on flowers.
Although with the latter if Growmore is more expensive I use FB&B on my flowers
johhnyco15:
i always use ffb i know it varies from packet to packet but it works for me if you have any comfry you can chop up the leaves and put them on the ground or make a tea the tea i use is 3 parts comfry 1 part pigeon poo however chicken pellets will do the same hope this helps
Obelixx:
I have never used Growmore.
