I've been using Milorganite fertilizer in my yard. Have you used it?

No, I haven't seen any up close. I gather it is a granular product,
an organic version of material stripped down to basic nutrients. I
like the compost products because they bring a full ecosystem to your
soil. I'm not sure if milorganite adds actual bulk humus-type stuff
and microbes or not.
Yes, black granules. You use a fair amount at a time, and if you put it down at
the wrong time or spill too much, it doesn't burn the plants. A long-time mom
and pop nursery owner near me swears by it and says it does add to the soil.
Has a rather, um, interesting odor though, but then so do a lot of organic products.
