I purchase Alaska's fish oil and kelp or other equal product. When mixing to use this product I add the Black Strap Molasses. This is the only fertilizer I use both indoors and outside.

I use aerobic manure based fully finished compost teas both inside and outside. This aerobic tea calls for Black Strap Molasses in the making but if made properly the Bio-Herd has consumed it all. The living biology is foliar and drench applied. It creates all the natural NPK my soils and potting mediums need.

In more than fifty years of gardening I have never used a manufactured fertilizer any place on this property. I deal with sandy loam over limestone and clay. The PH averages 6.8.

My potted patio flowers are as pretty as any in our neighborhood. I use no purchased potting mediums but I do use elements found in some commercial potting mediums plus soil and compost.
