Default Citrus/Fruit Tree food

Most plants are autotrophs. How are you going to feed an autotroph? Thats
silly.

One of the closest plants to an Heterotroph is the ghost flower. It gets
its food from other plants in a process called the bicarbohydrate transfer
of plants.

If we could feed a plant we would put the sun out of business.

Thank you very much for that detailed analysis. Very interesting.

I would still like to ask NG if they know of any SPECIFIC uses to
which I can put the leftover formula. Below is the original post:

===========================================

The detailed formula, basically 7-3-3, can be found at:

In addition, the faded old label lists following ingredients:

Humic Acd

Bacillus Subtilis
Bacillus Lichniformis
Paenbacillus Polymyxa
Bacillus Pumulis
Stretomyces Lycidus
Streptomyces Greiseus
Trichodema Harzianum
Trichoderma Veride

Calcined Clay

Endo Mycorrhizae (yam)
Three species (.65 spore/cu cm)
Glomus Intraradices
Glomus Mosseae
Glomus Aggregatum

I am very impressed, but...?

Any help on where I can use this plant food would
be much appreciated.
