I would like to know if any one uses or has used Seamungus fertiliser on their trees and what the results were?

I alternate ferts a fair bit but seamungus is GREAT!

As well as containing all the nutrients, it also contains humic acid, which is a amazing substance, allowing plants to pick up far more nutrients than they are usually able to. Thanks to the humic acid, the NPK doesnt need to be as high as other fertilizers, making the risk of burning with this product nearly non existent. It has high c.e.c. and so it retains nutrients for a long time, even in a totally inorganic mix.

Ooops. Double post.

Thanks Joel. I bought a huge bucket of it and just went around the shelves with it (ding ding, feeding time)
Its product description looked good and I do have a couple of batches of almost inorganic mix from last year which were showing some signs of deficiencies, mottled green and yellow green leaves. Blood and bone did not seem to do much difference to the inorganic mixes but this symptom maybe due to the variety of plant too as the same mix with a different variety does not have the same trouble.
I have done a couple of tests with it to see if there is any difference to growth. If I can I will post the result in 3 months or so. I tried a different brand of complete pelletised fert last year and it did not go so well, burning and losses

Burning and losses? Thats no good. Did you apply it at the recomended rate?

If you can provide photos of the deficiencies i might be able to help id what deficiency it is. Deficiencies can be cause by pH or toxicities of other nutrients too, as well as various environmental factors. Some deficiencies look really similar to some toxicities.

Thanks Joel,

I will fire up the clunkers (my old camera and comp) and post
