First-year Sac gardener! Looking for fertilizer advice
Hi everyone! This is my first year planting fruits/vegetables here. Im currently running two raised beds and a few large containers/wine barrels, all filled with organic soil. I have a variety of tomatoes along with other veggies including cucumber, eggplant, and peppers. I also have a Meyer lemon tree and some alpine strawberries.
I’m finally starting to see several “baby” fruits and veggies! I want to ensure a healthy and plentiful harvest but im overwhelmed by all the different fertilizer options. I have a basic understanding of NPK ratios, but after doing some online research, I’m seeing conflicting advice. Some people swear by liquid fish fertilizer while others are all about dry organic pellets. So, I’m wondering if people can chime in: (1) What is your preferred feeding routine/schedule for summer? And (2) what are you using?
Any tips on brands, frequency, or Sacramento specific quirks would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
