In reply to Tetyana Klymenko. This is Edward Smith's recipe (see the heading) so I'm not sure how he calculated the balanced ratio. As far as a replacement for greensand, I'm not sure. Good question. Wish I could be of more help.

If the blood meal is a 13-0-0 and rock phosphate is 0-3-0, how does using 1/3 cup of each create a balanced 10-10-10 NPK ratio?

Also, it seems greensand is no longer available domestically. Have you found anything to use as a replacement?

MY soil is too alkaline. 8.5 How can I lower it?
My vegetable garden is already established. The plants are not growing to their potential and the veggies are quiet small.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Phx AZ

In reply to Adam Barnes. That's a good question. Yes, to give your plants a good boost from the start, I think it's a good idea to add some.

Do you still recommend adding this fertilizer recipe to the “Growing in the Garden Raised Bed Mix” from the Arizona Worm Farm?
