Fertilizer

Hello Group,
I am going to be playing around with fertilizer. In the past I have made
various concoctions for my bonsai and other plants, this year it's going to be
the bulbs. Does anyone have suggestions for their own mixes or fertilizers?

There are a few outstanding mixes in past issues of Herbertia for liquid
feed. I am trying store bought granular components and then supplying small
amounts every week or so (hopeful not burning). The ingredients I plan on using
are nitrate of soda, muriate of potash, and super phosphate to supply 16-18-60.
This will be applied mainly to the Amaryllids (read- common/expendable Dutch
hybrid Hipps).

Comments anyone?

Thanks
Michael
