Re: Magic Fertilizers
I had a passion vine for three years that would not flower . Someone told me about Magic Bloom.What the heck I gave it a try. Next day the vine was covered with flowers and two day's later it had ripe fruit. Amazing stuff

Re: Magic Fertilizers
After applying granular sildenafil citrate around the bases, I've not had to prop a single fruiting plant.

Re: Magic Fertilizers
Had the native Americans used azomite treated fish for fertilizer the white men would've been prevented from ever landing by a sheer wall of corn.

Re: Magic Fertilizers
Do you really think such fertilizers are good for the quality? I don't think so. I prefer using bio fertilizers to get good result in agriculture, and never get the help of such artificial things. This affects the quality of the fruit and also makes the land not good for future use.

Re: Magic Fertilizers
Welllll I was kinda hoping y'all wouldn't ask for a follow up but here it goes anyways...
Me and my bro came to the conclusion that not only does assomite make plants grow huge and animals fatter but smarter also... We fished all day and only caught one! All the big ones just laughed at the bait... But we did catch a retard guppy. My bro showing it off: Would you believe we tried to submit this photo as a copenhagen tob. ad but got turned down??? |

Re: Magic Fertilizers
Does urine do anything for bananas? It's the magic elixir for dawn redwoods because of the nitrogen, urea and acidity, but I have no idea of the effects on bananas.

Re: Magic Fertilizers
Your bananas would like to have nutrients in an N:P:K ratio of 2:1:3, such as 6-3-9, 10-5-15, 16-8-24. Secondary and micronutrients also play an important role, as do the general texture and biological health of your soil. Your local soil and atmospheric conditions can moderate this -- those in the Florida panhandle enjoy extra airborne nitrogen and can get away with less in that category but have to deal with poor soil biotics.
In general, there are no silver bullets for plants (or humans), it all comes down to a balanced diet. The long-standing members here in your local area are good guides to success.
