What is the best organic fertilizer for houseplants. what is the highest in nutritional value for plants so that they get plenty of nitrogyn and flowering nutrition at the same tiime. It has to be high in numbers and turn my yellowing leaves a nice dark green while at the same time provide all the micronutirents for house plants. Does anyone out there have sucees with one that is an overall BEST!

It sounds like your plant has chlorosis; and I have found the worm castings are like a mega-dose of vitamins. Mulching in some of the worm casting perks plants right up within a week or two. The worms (usually red wigglers, are fed egg shells, as well as fruit and veggie scraps. They even eat chicken manure (they are sometimes called manure worms). So other than shreding newspaper, and getting a plastic opaque container with holes drilled in it for them to breathe--it is organic, good for your plants, keeps green food out of the trash; and as an added bonus, if you are lucky enough to get away, you can use the worms for fishing too!

A) 35 by way of fact a hundred% is all or an entire B)0.35 C)80x9=720 so like a million/9 of 720 is 80 D)70x8=560 so approximately 0.12 of 560 is 70 E)840 and the completed quantity of 8th graders is a million,050 F)50 s x 40 =2000 so 200cmx40= 8000 stable success!!!

Ok this one is the best of the best anywhere lol.
Chicken Manure but it is very very strong so use very carefully!
It has all the numbers you are looking for and more!
best way for flowers is to mix it with multch of some kind.
can be used straight but like I said it is very very strong.
It works for anything you need it for cept it stinks till it is rains on it, If used on yard or such.
Best time for flowers is in the early winter months.
You can get it from anyone that grows chickens or has chicken houses and such. It is a waste product from raising chickens. They have a hard time getting rid of it now with all the restrictions and new laws.

Hey, i had good plants in my house..and all i used on them was "egg-shell water" ya, you put the shells into a clean milk jug, almost filled with water and set it out in the sun.just keep putting them in as you get them. Have a secound jug handy and fill this one about half way ..and then slowly pour the contents from the other into the new jug, and shake it up a bit, and then "water your plants"..keep putting the shells into the other jug, and doing the same thing till its starts getting about a third full, and start a new jug for the shells, and you will have 2 jugs of shells. I also used coffee grounds in the potting mix (used of course) and ran more water through them to clean them..they hold water in the soil longer and help keep the dirt from compacting too, and it's easier to remove old and replace new later also...(I was the Plant Doctor of Saginaw Michigan) another good thing i did, was to place old "rusty nails" in my water and in the bottom of my plants....they need iron too! it's cheap, and they grow like mad!!!

I work at a landscape company that deals with organic and non-organic fertilizer programs.
for flowers, we recommend to anyone who's just looking to get greener and flowery results - miracle grow. works completely. but if you have a plant that you don't want to flower, Adam's Earth is definitely the best choice. plenty of nitrogen in it to make sure your leaves get super green. either one.

I have had great success alternating egg shells, coffee grounds & fish emulsion. The combination works for common house plants and exotics alike as well as outdoor plants such as azaleas, gardenias and camellias.

Coperas. Organic substitute is rusty nails, wire, etc. will cure the yellow leaves, they need iron.
For calcium, milk water.
dissolve an aspirin in 1 qt water
fish emulsion

Buy a soluble fertiliser that contains N. P.K for flowering plants, If you live in Australia buy phostrogen or miracle grow .For great colour use pot ash mulch well use a good quality potting mix .
good luck
