Fertilizing a garden is a must to produce strong, healthy plants. There are many commercial organic fertilizers on the market, but you can also mix your own fertilizer for less money. My mom and one of her good friends get together every year to mix a potent organic fertilizer for their gardens. My mom swears by it! And she has given me a bag of it to try on my new organic garden. (Thanks, Mom!!!) The recipe for this fertilizer was published in Mother Earth News in 2006. Below is a link to the article and recipe. It's very potent, and you have to be careful not to use too much, or it can burn up your plants. I'll be sprinkling a small amount into the soil, once a month. You may want to try it, too.
