Hello,
I truly believe in organic gardening. If your
plants are strong and healthy, they can usually fight off any insect infestation. I like to use Humor, an alfalfa compost, blood meal and bone meal. These seem to have the nutrients
plants need to be strong and vigorous. I have found that the blood meal is terrific for any flowering
plants, and does not burn if watered in well. I have "fried" several
plants with
rose and flowering
plant food. The
roses do very, very well, however, the other flowering
plants seem to be adverse to the chemical fertilizers. I have gardened for quite some time, and still learn so much each year. Oh, by the way, I am in Oklahoma and the climate is very close to yours. No competition? We do seem to have a rivalry going where football is concerned. Fortunately, I don't like football!
Kindest Regards,
Karen
