That said if anything it is BFB or poultry pellets sprinkled haphazardly around. If I think about feeding courgettes, I stop myself because there's normally too many and they don't need encouragement.Hiya JJB
Not much help I'm afraid.
It is helpful as to me it’s saying you are satisfied with your crop without religious feeding?

I don't think I feed anything else but rely on the compost that goes on the beds over-winter and when planting. Plus all my veg beds are mulched with gass clippings which I hope breaks down into something useful!!
My pretty things in pots get a weekly dose of it too.
I think I need to get some comfrey plugs for the plot next year
Just be certain to get sterile plants. I just grew it from seed because I have a big plot and can control it.
And then I planted it in the middle of the potager.
In the same bed as the asparagus.
I cannot control it!
Has Anyone Seen the Plot?
