What are you feeding your plants with ?

17 Dec, 2008

 

In the fall, I collect grass clippings, leaves, pine needles and throw them in. In the spring I throw down a couple 50 pound bags of some Espoma Garden-Tone. Plants that are doing okay I usually give some Espoma Bio-Tone Starter and a small, once daily liquid fertilizer, usually higher on the Nitrogen. That's all!

Thanks for the info. How large are the ears on this plant?
