  • What does organic tomato feed mean?

    I've just got through a box of 'blood, fish and bone'. It doesn't say that it is organic but seems to just contain nutrients. How does an organic feed differ from a regular tomato feed that doesn't explicitly state that it is organic?

    Sorry if this is a bit of a stupid question.

    Cheers,

    Terry

    BFB is not a dedicated tom food, it is a NPK neutral base fertilizer.

    If you want a true organic tom food you will do no better than 2Sheds comfrey tea.

      Organic means "made from natural things" as in not synthetic (made from petrochemicals, in a lab)

      BFB is organic because it's made from living critters

                I've opted for comfrey tea this year, not looking forward to the smell that everyone talks about.

                  completely off subject but how do people choose their names? City and the mountains is a great name but why?
                  and Potstubsdustbins is also a brilliant name ...presumably cos thats what you use to garden in but how did you think of it?

                    It's really, really bad!!! I make sure I'm wearing gloves when I'm decanting it into the watering can, severely do not want that smell on my hands! But nothing seems unhappy to have been watered with it. Time for (another) controlled trial - can't say otherwise whether it's of benefit or not.

                      My first batch is almost ready to use - I admit to being a bit nervous about opening the bottle!
