The reason i ask is i used the last of my liquid seaweed last night and wanted to see what everyone else did rather than doing the same thing all of the time, was toying with getting SM3 from OGC as that was good last year, but will definately get some more bfab, but keep it away from little foxes this time
I made nettle fertiliser last year which I left "cooking" over the winter. The problem was the smell was really awful, and I mean really awful Not sure I'd try it again
Bekkie - Comfrey is rich in potassium (K), which is required for fruit production, and also nitrogen (N). A liquid comfrey feed has a higher NPK ratio than farmyard manure.
Nettle tea has an NPK of around 8-5-20, wonderful stuff.

Thanks all x
My mom used to put comfrey in my tea to make me sleep!

Is it nettles for nitrogen and comfrey for everything?

A combination of both is even better.
Strawbs, rasps, blueberries, goosegogs, and every type of fruit tree i could find plus vines- gonna need a lot of feed!
Bekkie - This thread is quite informative: http://www.gardenersworld.com/forum/the-potting-shed/advise-for-the-nettle/comfrey-users/89028.html if you need any more help, just yell.
