Title: Blood fish & bone.
Post by: grannyjanny on July 15, 2010, 19:52:27
I wasn't sure if I had taken bonemeal or B F & B with me so asked the lovely Alan. It was B F & B but he gave me a handful of B F & B that was pelleted & 7. 7. 7. What is the usual of this product please?

Pelleted B,F&B is a new one on me i have only ever had it in granular form, What color is it.
Growmore is N7, P7 K7

F, B & B Is N5, P5, K6
In other words it is higher in Potash but never the less it is a slow releasing organic fertalizer

I use it all the time, and i think its one of the best fertilizers there is. Although i don't scatter it over the garden i prefer to put a circle of it around my veg plants on planting out, this way i know it is being taken down to where it is needed at the roots
