Planting Tomorrow - Need A Granular Fertilizer that Doesn't Smell

greenthumbomaha · May 3, 2018

Last year I posted pictures of my garden that was dug up TWICE immediately after planting. The fertilizer smell was like ringing the dinner bell for a woodchuck or something similar.

I usually use products like Jobes Organics and Tomato Tone. Until I get a proper fence system, I need to use something less smelly.

I am not familiar with big box type granular fertilizers. Has anyone used a granular fertilizer that doesn't attract creatures that I can walk in and buy in a Lowes type store for just this once. The soil has enough old compost for conditioning but not fertilizing. I don't have access to any fresh products like rabbit poo.
