- * There is an error in the video. Under the options for nitrogen I said bone meal instead of blood meal. Here is the recipe:
You will want to measure by volume not weight.
Nitrogen: 2 parts of cottonseed meal, feather meal, blood meal, bat guano, fish meal, or soybean meal.
Phosphorus: 1 part bone meal, soft rock phosphate or crab shell meal
Potassium: 1 part greensand, wood ashes, or sulfate of potash ( Sul-Po-Mag)
Calcium: 1 part calcium carbonate (limestone) or dolomite (dolomitic limestone)
Micronutrients and the rest of the macronutrients will be found in kelp meal: ½ part kelp meal

More great info on Strawberries.
Thank you Roberta for watching and commenting on my videos!!!
Love the dog marching back and forth in the background of your video. All we can see is the tip of his tail makes me think of a submarine
Thanks! That is Tony the farm dog. He appears in a lot of videos lately!

Thanks for sharing... watching from Malaysia
Thanks for watching!
I had to dig up all my strawberry plants. Reasons:
1: Mixed in some chopped up fall leaves into that soil plus some soil sulfur, Azomite, Bone meal.
2) Raised bed was low on soil.
3) Had to separate and re-space the plants.
When the time comes I will use Alaska Fish Fertilizer,
Won't mulch for a while yet.
Extra strawberry plants I planted elsewhere on the property,
I bought some box store strawberry roots to use in grow bags within a kiddie pool (have far too many pill bugs eating everything in sight).
Haven't mixed that soil yet. Have to wait unfortunately.
Note: On potted plants soil, I cook that soil to 204F to kill off bugs, eggs, and pathogens. I use the same mixing in that soil as I did above.
I really DO cook the soil....
AWSOME info! thank you. Which day neutral variety would you recommend for Pennsylvania, hot, humid summers, cold winters, zone 6, currently after update zone 7. Eva
Seascape is my favorite!
Very important vid
Thanks for watching!
I'm so excited to have this recipe...I've collected all the ingredients and will make it today.....Can I use this recipe for my raspberries, blueberry bushes and marion berry bushes? Thank you soooo much for this super helpful recipe....Can't wait to taste my strawberries this year.....
I bet this recipe will work really well for your other plants. Thanks for watching!
Is there additional info in your e-course for strawberries or is all the info in the 8 strawberry videos in the playlist?
The ecourse has TONS more information than the 8 you tube videos.
The past several years you encouraged us to use “Happy Frog: Fruit and Flower” you now prefer this fertilizer?
Question #2; in tomato fertilizer ,your recipe is similar to this,but for the nitrogen you recommend fish meal or bat dodo BUT NOT the Bone meal? Wonderful why the switch?
Hi Linda, We have people all over the world watching and they don't have access to Happy Frog products. So I needed a recipe for those out of the Happy Frog area. I do still like the happy frog Fruit and Flower Fertilizer.
Fish Meal and bat guano have a little bit more nitrogen then the bone meal.
Could we use 3 parts bone meal for the first 2 ingredients?
I bet you could. Give it a try!
Mam why my strawberries are totally white inside...it smells good but it's tasteless and very mashy!
The plants probably need more nutrients. Calcium helps the berry to not be mushy. Trace minerals create the flavors.
