Whats up everyone,
Im planing to plant my plants straight into the ground. I got my soil sampled and the PH was 7 and all nutrients were past the adequate level except for potassium and phosphorus. What would be the best/cheapest thing to mix in the soil for just these two nutrients? Would i have to mix it in weeks before?
Any help would be appreciated!

Amending the holes/soil a few weeks in advance is definately beneficial. It allows time for the micro organisms to get "busy".. before your plants need them.
Heres a link to some pretty good info'.. ;)

THE CHEEPEST OR EASIEST?
AN ARREATED COMPOST TEA FOR CHEEPNESS, OR A BOTTLED NUTE THATS SEMI ORGANIC LIKE ff IS EASIEST. ITS ALL WHAT YOUR WILLING TO PUT OUT. YOU WILL HAVE BETTER RESULTS WITH A COMPOST TEA BUT ff GROWBIG N BLOOM ARE HARD TO BEAT BOTTLED NUTRIENT.
oops sorry for caps, im to stoned to change it...sry
i have a diy thread on teas if u wanna find it, if not ill linke you....
..never used them, but they appear to be loaded up w/ "goog stuff". BUT, they also look like fertilizers, not amendments for your holes.
I'd think about some composted manures to add, along with something for aireation, perlit/vermiculite and dolomite lime ?)
