Well, now that I've answered I take back that I don't buy alot of stuff, looks like I do:LOL: But I'm truly not great about using chemicals and bagged fertilizers. Nothing is sold in containers small enough for my little patch plus I don't like the idea of storing anything leftover like that in the house w/ the pets so I've adapted to using more basic amendments that can just be dumped on and dug in. One large container of granulated miracle grow with 3 plastic sleeves in it can last me a year or more depending on how much I have to water (yup, all by hand with watering can filled up from my kitchen sink--no outdoor faucet for use at my complex:lol)
