Welcome! Hockeyrabbit!

I am in zone four some falls if I get around to it I spread alfalfa pellets that is used for horse feed it doesn't have salt in it like rabbit pellets which you would not want in the garden. I plan on doing it this fall and also spread them around this spring. This spring I spread it around all the garden and shrub areas. I do not always get it done every year but it gives plants an amazing boost. That is the only fall supplement I use. To my way of thinking plants do not need fertilizer in our cold winter because they are not growing.
If you want to be happy for a lifetime plant a garden!
Faith is the postage stamp on our prayers!
