My Top fertilizer is Compost tea, compost tea is the most potent fertilizer you can have, It has more nutritional value than most, it is organic and cheaper than buying other fertilizers. The key to having the best compost tea is to used good quality compost and other ingredients.
Another great fertilizer is Epsom salt, Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) provides two important nutrients (magnesium and sulfur) that are essential for vigorous plant growth and development. magnesium is very important for cell wall development in plants and also helps plants absorb essential nutrients like phosphorous, nitrogen, and sulfur. Epsom salt is also cheaper than other chemical-based fertilizers and it is organic.
