Yes, I know .... " tomatoes" I've seen from Kev that you can use it for Potatoes too, and I know about aubergines too.

 

What can you feed courgettes/ pumpkins with? Do they need something different?

 

Many thanks in advance

I use an organic seaweed feed for all my veg and im really pleased with the results but i suppose tom feed will do for most veg too but ive never tried it

[chickencam]

I use it on courgettes, peppers cucumbers and french beans in the garden, anything that flowers and fruits really then use phosphagen on flower pots and baskets.

 

I use seaweed extract at the allotment.

bonjour tout le monde...

 

this year is the first year i really do things by the book with feeding...

 

so i have been feeding my tomatoes, courgettes, pumpkins, cucumber, potatoes, butternut squash, and other stuff, in pots or in the ground, with seaweed extract for far...

 

now that flowers are coming up on most veg plants, i am going to start feeding with organic tomato plant instead...

even the strawberries...

 

i feed once a week...

which may be too much.... that, i am not sure about...

if anyone knows better, i'd like to know!!

 

Bisou!

you should only really feed after the fruits have started forming otherwise you can just encourage foliage to grow..

 

Nevertheless its better than underfed if your soil is bad, just keep on feeding when the fruits are there

You can feed most things with tomato feed, it's the cheapest fertilser to make because of the vast quantities they make it in. You can feed tomatoes-when they're setting fruit with it, same as Pumpkins and you can also feed cacti and other flowers to give them a boost.

I'm too tight to buy tomato feed. Could I use watered down chicken poo as a feed for my toms and potatoes?

Im off to the garden to try it

I'd be careful with that as you could scorch the plant with the high levels of acidity in the chicken poo. not saying its wrong, just would check it out first

[Snowy]

Hm, well no ones jumped up and down and said definitely not, so I'll give it a try, well watered down and onto the soil only (maybe on the toms only, not sure I like the idea of my potatoes pickling in chicken poo )

I think it's SarahJo who uses Poo Soup for her beans and things......it always seemed to work well for her.

How very poetic!

I use worm wee from the wormery to fertilise my veggies - they're all doing very well.

We use home made comfrey liquid and seaweed. In the garden I use pelleted poultry manure (not for much longer), seaweed, and comfrey leaves.

[Blackrocksrock]

I am using the comfrey goo but its really very very smelly - looks and smells like sick!!!!
