Fertiliser for Bulbs

(1/3) > >>

mark smyth:
Today I'm going out to buy some fertiliser to give the bulbs a boost especially those in the same pot for a second year. What fertiliser do you recommend?

I know Chempak has already been discussed

Maggi Young:
Sulphate of Potash

Martin Baxendale:
I've always used Tomorite tomato liquid fertiliser and had no problems with it. High potash but still a good dose of the other nutrients, which I think you do need for the leafier bulbs like snowdrops.Plus I now also give a dose of sulphate of potash as per Ian and Maggi's advice for an additional boost to flowering and health.

Maggi Young:
I wouldn't be using Tomorite yet, though....would wait until later... but, of course, I'm forgetting that Mark's plants are well into growth  already....  :-\

mark smyth:
yes someone already said wait until later in the year to use tomato food.

Isnt S of P for bulb growth only? Should I buy a balanced general food - liquid or granular?
