Hello,
i currently have have a raised bed of strawberries, two pots containing summer and autumn raspberries and a four year old apple tree.
I have heard a good high potash feed is good for the strawberries and raspberries. I was thinking of using tomato feed but I'm not sure when and how often to feed them. Also does the apple tree need a feed?
I also fed all the plants with Growmore in the spring.
Many thanks,
Glyn

Tomato feed is good apply every 10-14 days for the strawberries when they are in season otherwise use a general purpose feed.
For the tree use some blood fish and bone, If the tree is fruiting feed lots of potassium and less nitrogen so again the tomato feed should be good imo although have no experience of the trees.
