Well, the missus ( The Almighty Victoria [*bows*] .. sorry honey, I didn't mean to lower you to "the missus" intentionally ... it just slipped out :| ) .... anyway, the missus wants me to put up some new shelves soon, I can collect all the scrapings and post them to you?

Should be enough to keep you going for months

Why just the dried blood Dugless? Instead of the usual BFB?

Just curious

Its part of an old tomato feed mix I found in an old book. I did put the recipe on a post, I did say at that time I was having difficulty finding it.

yes it works I have used it for years when its made up its cheaper than all the propriatry brands though I am afraid its not Totaly ORGANIC,
but my views on that subject are my own.

The garden centre down the road from me sells everything feed and fertiliser wise 'loose' like the old weigh and pay shops. They do dried blood for sure. Bit of a drive for you though!

J Arther Bower's dried blood available online e.g. LINK, although postage seems quite steep.
I would have thought that any local garden centre would be able to get it in for you

Update: if you want larger quantity, Kay's Discount Garden do 25kg bag for £26.50 plus £5.95 delivery. They are in West Cumbria so may be the one referred to above. LINK

Thanks folks thats a relife I thought the EU had wanted it liecensing. so they had withdrawn it. Usesd to get it almost any where LOCAL that sold fertilizers.
all they stock now is fish blood and bone.
