I totally fertilize on Fridays now, ever since you I heard mentioned it. Makes it really easy to remember!

[curiouscat]

I just learned last year that my seedlings never grew because I wasn't fertilizing after germination. So this year I eagerly fed them and they croaked. So now I know why my baby seedings croaked after I fertilized them - they were just too young (only cotyledons out) and I probably used too much. Things never go well when I wing it so Thank you! I also appreciated the giggles :)

For the smell in the house... baking soda is your best friend. I have all my seedlings in our den, and oh man does it stink after fertilizing! A bowl of baking soda helps with the odor. 🙂

lol your little comments are cute ! “Ohhh you’re ok” 😂 thank you for the great information and demonstration

I am a Fox Farm Organics gal. No stink and great for my seedlings.

I use this exact fertilizer on everything! Indoor and outdoor! My houseplants LOVE it, as do my roses! I just use the recommended amount of fertilizer and they’re happy. We had such a warm winter, I fertilized even through winter! I just used it at 1/2 strength but now it April, and they’re taking off! I love it! Never want to be without it! Great video! Thank you!

You are an awesome example for flower gardeners and farmers. Thank you for all that you do for others and have a great day fertilizer Friday 😊

[ginahaney]

Haha! You are for realzies! I use that fertilizer also. Last week while placing some freshly fertilized seedlings back up onto the. Dry high top shelf of my grow rack, I poured the water right down my shirt. 😪🤢😅

First time seed starter here. 1:21 into the vid, and you already saved the day for me. : D I want snaps so badly, and haven’t been sure what my seedlings' problem could be....but you showed it eeeexactly. You saved me a few days of brooding, and huffing and puffing over my seedlings. Thank you from Hungary (the snaps - the ones I haven't killed yet also thank you)!

Neptune's Harvest is good stuff. The smell is exactly what I expected when I read the ingredients 😄 Sometimes I use Super Thrive. It doesn't take much & It smells straight up like cheap multivitamins-that tangy medicinal vitamin pack smell.

Fish, Seaweed/Kelp based fertilisers are great. However I stopped using it. If I use it inside, I get a lot complains from the household. If I use outdoors, racoons and foxes come over and dig wherever I sprayed.

[marianstallings]

I put fish fertilizer in my pump sprayer and spray around the yard, the flowers, bushes and outermost edges of the yard to keep deer away. It seems to work until it rains, but it’s easy enough to respray.

I use fox farm grow big liquid fertilizer on my seedlings. I use slow release epsoma products when they are planted outside.
Fertilize my pots with either grow big or big bloom in outside pots.

[jackiegreenjeansallen]

OMG... you made me laugh so hard with the smell! I use the same product and it is truly putrid 🤢. I sprinkled some organic pellets into the garden beds the other day and my dog couldn’t stop licking it up 😂. Thanks for the video🤗

[amydeeds]

Yes my dog use to eat the fish emulsion fertilizer I used outside-digging up the plants so had to stop using it lol. I wondered why my delphiniums stopped growing-I fertilized too early. Thanks ☺️

[notalkjustnails]

Thanks for this video, yesterday I dropped this question on another video! Question answered, thanks a lot!

[kitycheeha]

Hi, so I just found out that nigella damascena exists and OMG HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THEM BEFORE. Had to share the joy and pretty flowers

[wildfoxflowerfarm]

My husband hates this stuff hahaha Neptune's the best husband deflector 😅

[sandyrivergardens]

Hi Nicole! Are you watering weekly in between fertilizing? If so, are you just spot watering where necessary or watering all trays??

[aimeeseattle]

Love your vids! I havent done any indoor seedlings this year, but thinking of doing my fig cuttings and trying that type of fertilizer you've used. I've used liquid seaweed fertilizer for my asparagus outdoors with good results. Had less energy these days after recovering from being sick the past few months ago, but excited to get back into doing more gardening soon. Thanks for your videos, i learned alot from this video and want to try a small amount of seed blocks with my larkspur. Your'e so funny at the end!
