This episode looks at feeding plants in the garden: macronutrients and micronutrients, solid and liquid fertilizers, high/ medium/ low fertility soil improvers – what’s it all about?

We’ve covered composting several times in previous shows (see also episode 26 on worm composting, 32 for leaf mould and 60 for cold composting), as well as using comfrey, urine and green manures.
