Can you overdo it with the alfalfa pellets? I added some to the garden when I planted all of my daylilies a couple of months ago, but I'm thinking that maybe I should add some more before winter. To me, it seems that they help the soil just as much as the plant. The soil in the garden seemed like it really needed some help, and is so much better now. I didn't have time to work in any compost when I planted, but the garden is only a temporary spot for the daylilies. I can work in compost when I move them to a more permanent spot later.
