what do you all use as fertiliser and plantfood  on your plots. i don't have a clue what is good or needed and i would love some tips.

Hi there, All I do is get a load of stinging nettles, put them in a bucket, cover with water, and let it fester for a few weeks. You can then strain out any gooo, and pour it on your plants.

I get chicken manure from a friend of a friend of a friend. Come to think of it, how do I know its chicken manure?

I often use changes of water from the fish tank on non edible plants, only because I'm not sure about whether it would be good for Veg without composting.

I buy poultry manure (pellet form) always get a good crop.. with pots and hanging baskets i use the wilkinsons pellet food (lasts all season) so u havent gotta worry about feeding them o and i use that pellets with poultry manure for the toms and cucumbers

Fish tank water (full of fish poo) is really good for anything.

I use comfrey manure but failing that for toms I use an organic liquid feed.

[GrannieAnnie]

Comfrey, either as a liquid feed or in the compost, and just using hte last of our own chicken manure

Manure. Tons and tons of manure.

So far I have used 3.5 cu metre of horse manure, about half dug in and half top dressed.

I've only just realised an almost unlimited supply of horse manure so haven't experienced its delights so much, other than the odd bag I got and some scraped off the road, the wife thought that was very funny.

Glad about the fish water
