I wish I could get mine to that size   

That's no help at all, but thought it needed saying 

Tell me about it! Calabrese and collies - don't think I've ever got either more than about 2 inches across

Still, I'm determined to find something that works!

Would straightforward (ie no weed-killer or moss-killer) pasture fertilizer work? It works well for my leeks

[mumofstig]

what NPK levels has it got?
