I like PLANT TONE or FLOWER TONE for bagged fertilizer in the spring. In the summer I go with liquid Fertilizer. I use Neptunes Liquid Seaweed Fertilizer.

I like the Rose and Flower tones too, and Alfalfa meal, fish Emulsion, and the seaweed...and compost, lovely compost to build the soil.

Thanks! I am going to a garden store on Thursday that carries Espoma, so I will get Flowertone. Is their stuff good, in general? I hope to find the other stuff there, too.

Ok, I got Plant tone and Neptune's. Is every 2-3 weeks good? What else is the seaweed stuff good on, and how badly does it smell?

I got the seaweed and fish version. Is that ok, or do I need to reurn it to store and find it online?
