A new twist in fertilizing plants
While I was placing an order from Extremepumpkinstore.com for Actinovate I came across Organic feeder packs from Xtreme Gardening products from RTI. As they were and are on sale for a 50 pack bag I went ahead and ordered a bag. I've seen the fertilizer sticks but not the pouches. When I planted out my surrogate I placed one bag on each side of the plant and covered. I also did the same thing a couple weeks ago when I planted my containers.
I think these pouches would also work great in SWC's (Tainers) to supplement the fertilizer strips. The results so far seem promising as my surrogate garden has really taken off. It's still to early to tell on the container plant outs. A word of note on the Extreme Pumpkin store is I have always gotten excellent service and they carry some unique products for those that want to push the growing envelope. Here is the url for the feeder packs. The owner of the store is a TVillan member who's handle is Bohica. Here are also a couple pictures of my surrogate plants and the product.
