I'm by no means an experienced grower but I have used growmore, fish, blood, bone but have just ordered some comfrey roots to grow and make my own fertilizer, from the research i've done its better than most commercial ones and in the long run much cheaper.
What if the Hokey Cokey IS what its all about...

I had some success with chicken poo pellets last year  - my french beans in a pot started to turn yellow while we were on holiday and I dissolved some pellets in water and it sorted them out. I have heard you can also do the same with compost - the soluble minerals end up in the water and can be used as a feed.
