What are some organic fertilizers I can use in my garden?

Asked a year ago
There are several organic fertilizers that can be used in your garden to promote healthy plant growth. One option is compost, which is made from decomposed organic material and provides essential nutrients and beneficial microorganisms. Another choice is seaweed or kelp fertilizer, rich in trace minerals, amino acids, and growth hormones. Using bone meal, derived from animal bones, is beneficial for root development. Blood meal, made from dried animal blood, is high in nitrogen and aids in leafy growth. Fish emulsion, a liquid fertilizer made from fish waste, enhances overall plant health. Additionally, worm castings, or vermicompost, are nutrient-rich organic matter produced by earthworms. Ensure proper application and follow package instructions when using any of these organic fertilizers to optimize their effects and enjoy a thriving garden.
