Hello all, I'm wondering if anyone has any idea about where i can find bulk fertilizers (organic or not). I've looked around with Google, but I've run into issues. I need to find a supplier that packs the stuff AND ships it. I don't live in the USA so this is very important. I find that suppliers either dilvier to your address, with dump truck loads of the stuff, which is a no no as the address i intend to give is a shipping company address so they can ship the stuff to me, Or i would need to pick it up myself (in bulk packages), again impossible because i live in a different country.
Compost and seaweed is pretty much all i can do myself as i live on an island in the Bahamas. the thing is the local soil is completely shot. It has a good amount of phosphorous but devoid of nitrogen and potash (I mean it's completely non existent according to the soil test kit i got) AND the ph is around 8-9. In the future I'll have about an acre of land to grow stuff so I'm trying to hunt down places i can order from now. I know many of you may suggest making my own compost, and it's certainly on my to do list. but the amount I'll need is staggering. I'm hoping to get some bulk compost and worm castings to start off and eventually become self sustainable. My options are extremely limited, other than compost, the only other thing i can get is seaweed. Tried growing a few veggies as an experiment and as expected, most didn't do too well.
