After reading on the MSN forum about using Chicken Fertilizer - and ESPECIALLY after talking to Ted Green - I am putting a small scoop of Chicken Manure on my pots outdoors. Teds plants all grow out in his garden hanging from fences, trees etc. - and he said they simply went crazy with new growth and blooms. So - I am going to do the same. This will mean I only have to water them and not schlepp a jug with fertilizer mixed in the water....and I don't trust the slow release stuff. I will use the Stutzman dried stuff - not fresh. CM is really very healthy for plants...and we would use it more if the dogs didn't run around eating all of it in the ground!!!!! They can't reach my pots!!!!

Has anyone else tried this on their outdoor hoyas?

Picture is old...but it is seedpods on a H. australis.
