Hi All,
So im thinking ahead to next year and was reading about using Comfrey and Nettles to make a general liquid fert.
I know that I should buy Blocking 14 Comfrey if I am going to grow it but have a few questions:
is it REALLY invasive, or can it be kept under control with regular cutting?
If I ever choose to get rid of it, can I ?
There are also loads of nettles I have at my disposal so was thinking about doing 2 water butts, one of Comfrey and the other nettles. That then leads me onto my next question about ferts in general. Can someone verify my understanding
Nitrogen - For Leaf growth (so Brassicas, salad leaf etc)
Phosphorus - Roots (Potatoes, Onions, Garlic etc)
Potassium - Fruit and Flowers (Toms etc)
What is Comfrey and Nettles high in?
I did have bookmarked some good information but it looks like the website has had a restructure and taken the pages down!
Thanks,
Craig
