Default Re: Organic Fertilizer that matches banana fuel 20-5-30

So, theoretically you would need to mix a 12-0-0 and a 0-12-0 with a 0-0-21 equally to get the 4-4-7 you are speaking of?
Say, blood meal3 lb ( Jobe's Organics Blood Meal Fertilizer, 3 lbs - Walmart.com )
And bone meal 4lb (Jobe's Organics Bone Meal Fertilizer, 4 lbs - Walmart.com )
and potash 6 lb (Espoma PO6 Potash Garden Fertilizer-6LB POTASH - Walmart.com )
In equal parts, this would result in a mixture of a 0-0-60 with a 2-14-0 and a 12-0-0 which would be a 7-7-30. Seems to me that 2, 3 lb bags of blood meal, one bag of bone meal at 4 lb and one 6 lb bag of potash would get pretty close to what you are wanting... right?
Plants aren't really that picky anyway, so it will work great with compost and manure and scraps and such you are most likely already putting around your plants ...
