Default Favourite fertilizers and schedules

Hey all,

I breifly toutched ont his subject in another topic, but I thought it deserved one for itself

Basically, Im trying to build up a good collection of plant foods/fertilizers. All I have so far is tomato food, Blood-fish-bone, and soon to be making nettle and comfrey tea. But this might happen a bit late this year as im still waiting for my comfrey to germinate.

Anyway I would like to hear what YOU all recommend for food plant foods/fertilizers and also a rough schedule on when you use them all through out the year.

They will be used on a variety of veg, and the following fruit:

apple, plum, pear, cherry, apricot, orange, lemon, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, blackcurrants

Thanks v much,

Alex

When planting trees and shrubs use Bonemeal, this is a high phosphate fertiliser which is needed for root developement.
