Silvia: Fertilizer question

10 years ago

At your party you told me the fertilizer you use for just about all your veg., shrubs is Florikan is that correct? Is it also 13-13-13? Not sure I wrote it down correct. You also use that on your avocado? I goggled Florikan 13-13-13 and was unable to find it. Thanks for your help.

You wrote it correct, it is 13-13-13 slow release fertilizer, they have different formulas and I have my feed store ordering for me. There is a small bottle in HD that is also 13-13-13 slow release fertilizer and is called Dynamite. It is more expensive to get the small bottle, that is why I buy the big bag that last me a long time. I use it for making the tomato soil and the fruit trees.
