Fertilizer

I love Miracle Grow for vegetables and am learning the magic of frequent applications!!!

Anyone have any cheaper version that works just as good?

Goldbar Squash 43 days
Anaheim Chili Hot Pepper (medium hot) 75 days

This bed (right side) is deeper and there is nothing between the clay soil and the revitalize:

Yellow Pear Tomato 78 days
Oregon Spring Cherry Tomato 60 days

Behind the beds I have planted 3 beans and 4 corn in 20% revitalize 80% clay soil
To the left of the beds I have planted 3 climbing honesuckle. Planted withing 15 minutes of spraying weeds with killer. We'll see if they make it...
