Vegetables Gardening - Growing Organic Vegetables

Thanks, I didn't know that. I guess I really need this group. I will have to see if I can find any organic nurseries in my area.
Thanks,
Dolly

Dolly,
Yes this and Organic garden group. Thanks to modern science the organic fertilizers are now boxed and bag in pellet and granular form. And they are rated the same way as the Petro chemical fertilizers are. So and all purpose fertilizer means that the amounts of the NPK are equal like N 10 - P 10 - K 10

However the fertilizer itself is comprised of Organic materials. I suggest a field trip to the nursery( not a garden center) is in order and go to the section of Organic Fertilizers and look for brands like Whitney Farms or Dr. Earth and read the panels and talk to the nursery folks.
Good call though, sometimes us old timers assume where we should clarify and you just clarified that point. Thanks.
jeff

I'm brand new to this group, but I was under the impression that this was a group for organic gardening. I don't believe "all purpose 10-10-10 fertilizer"
is organic. But I suppose you could substitute compost for the fertilizer.
