It really does smell fishy around here, hee, hee, hee. Today I sprayed my Siberian Iris, my Blueberry Shrubs and all my daylilies with the Neptunes Liquid Seaweed Fertilizer. The stray cats and neighbor racoons should go crazy tonight trying to figgure out what smells so good to them LOL! I don't usually fertilize my daylilies in the fall but have been reading were most of the hybridizers recommend Fall fertilizing for good fan increase and growth. I do remember fall fertilizing that first year of my daylily crazies back in 2007 and those daylilies were just so lush and green that fall. But I did use a bagged fertilizer back then. Plant Tone in fact, which is what I usually use in the spring on the daylilies.

I have been using the neptune brand liquid Seaweed Fertilizer after bloom season for years and I used that twice after this bloom season. Between that and the rains I could really see my daylilies green up like crazy and the fans really are so very green now. I wonder if they could get any deeper green now that I added the fish fertilizer. Guess I will find out.
