Thoughts on fertilizer -- 2023

Greatgardens · January 21, 2023

Fertilizers have taken a big jump in price (like nearly everything else). Are you going to change fertilizers this year?

I see that Menard's has "Chicken Poo" All Purpose fert. for $10.99/25# bag. Its analysis is 2-4-3. That's fairly mild, but still that is a really good price for a 25# bag of organic fertilizer.

I'm thinking about giving it a try on a few plants next season. What do you think of dried, pelletized chicken manure for tomatoes?
