I'm Scared

[big rockpile]

I'm wanting to do stuff Organic and store bought Organic Fertilizer I can handle but home made I'm afraid of burning.

It wouldn't be so bad but I get so many conflicting reports.

If your soil (dirt?) is in good heart, you actually do not need fertilisers. Think about it, leaving a place to go fallow restores fertility just by leaving it alone. Fertilisers are more plant food than anything else. I know you are into the compost making scenario and adding the results of that to your land will do far more good than any set of chemicals, bought or homemade.
Obviously plants in containers are a different thing.

I'm thinking more along the line repot often.

I'm into growing some plants that most think they need to fertilize heavy but I'm thinking if they look good don't worry.

It is extremely difficult to burn with organic fertilizer. They are so low in nutrients that unless you work at it you can’t do damage.

But their better and you have to wait.

What about Compost burning?

What about Compost burning?

You're not going to burn anything with broken down compost. "Burning" is basically refering to too much nitrogen which causes the plant to outgrow other nutrients.

I found a PH meter for soil.

I went checked where this one guy was getting his info and it is an Organic Group in Korea.

What so many don't realize is anything in the soil is mostly for the Microbs the plant comes later.

Read take in glean and do your own dance.

Got one book I bought at our Extension Center. I'm sorry but it turned me off talking about chemicals.

That's exactly my approach.

Last Summer I moved a bunch of plants.

People said I was crazy but you could see my plants were much happier.

Now we are just making it through the Winter. My Son said they look like they are happy.
