I put this in my high rise bed about a month before planting the veg and they look much better than last year when I didn't put any on.

I have heard you can disslove some in water as well to water soil with.  Or of course suspend a bag in a water trough, check this out though as can't remember where I saw it.

i use it on my pumpkins and courgettes - i just throw a scoopful into the bottom of the hole, backfill with compost and put the plant in.
then firm it down and off you go.

I usually water before i put the pellets in, because apparantly the goodness leaches away if it's watered afterwards.
