but it would be better if the plants received a constant supply.

I have never seen any experimental evidence in favour of your
point.
Have you?
Practically all agriculture and horticulture are based on applying
fertilisers once or twice per year.

Except hydroponics http://www.growell.co.uk/

I will settle for 95 to 5

OK! I can take a hint. I've watered the whole garden with fertilizer and
didn't finish my raised bed :O)
I'll do it tomorrow - it's taking ages anyway. bricks and mortar is much
harder work than I ever imagined. A cement mixer would help of course!!

Anyway - I do have a question about fertilizing - I always though (perhaps
incorrectly), that plants such as tomatoes, courgettes etc benefit from
being fed more often when fruiting?
