I started using Maxicrop a couple of years ago. It provides nutrition plus trace elements. I use it as a foliar feed, root drench, leek-planting-out watering-in, plant reviver and general all-rounder. I bought the general and the tomato (potassium-rich) ones. I am a bit wary of things like "Miracle-Gro" though they may do as good a job - I don't know. I haven't done a trial test using different feeds, but I don't think you can go far wrong with it.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Maxicrop is good - it gets the results locally.

I use Shropshire Seaweed Growth Enhancer, totally organic. Seems to work well and worked out to be excellent value for money at the dilution rates quoted. :)

Been using the same as allotmentannfor 2 years now brilliant stuff. I do feel that sooner than feed the plants it somehow allows them to take up more food. certainly my allotment spuds toms & runners are doing better than most this year  :D
