What is the best fertilizer for high nitrogyn?

Question

I am finding that all my natural fertilzers are not high enough for my plants to recieve nitrogyn and phosferous that they need. Can anyone out there tell me what is the best natural fertilizer high in plant nutrition that makes plants grow deep green and flower at the same time? I do not want to use chemical. Or substitutre one thing with another.

Answer 1

Organic fertilizers that are high in nitrogen include cottonseed, alfalfa and blood meals, fish emulsion and manures (cow, horse, chicken, rabbit, etc.), but not dog or cat manures. Manures should always be composted before applying to the garden as they can be quite high in nitrogen and can burn your plants.

You can also check to see if Milorganite is available in your area. It's made from sewage sludge and is used extensively on golf courses.

Answer 2

The easy answer is to use a larger quanitity of your current fertilizers. The amount of nitrogen the plants get depends on the nitrogen content of the fertilizer and the volume used. You will get 10 pounds of nitrogen and phosphorus by using 100 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer or by using 200 pounds of 5-5-5.

The link below provides the N and P ratios for various organic fertilizers. You can then calculate how much to use to get the amount of N and P you want.

Answer 3

You can purchase cow manure from a nursery. It is high in many minerals. Just make sure to mix it with soil because it is too strong to just put it on the base of the plant. The potency would burn your plants.
Also, when you mow your lawn....if you bag the grass, you can use the clippings around your plants. The grass holds nitrogen...
