Organic Fertilizer for house plants?

Question

Got any ideas? I use compost in the yard but there are worms and what not in there so I don't know what to use to fertilize my houseplants ORGANICALLY! Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

Answer 1

just sift out your compost to remove the worms. Or make a compost tea http://www.taunton.com/finegardening/how... . There are several name brand organics out there but be careful of the ingredients some contain fish oils and can be quite stinky.

Answer 2

Organic fish emulsion is great for plants.  It smells horrible, however.  I used to take my plants outside, fertilize them, then leave them outside until the smell subsided.  Usually several days and even then, there was some odor.

I also deep watered the plants and gave them a good shower to clean them up, while they were outdoors.  That probably helped them out, too.
