Thank you for your reply Billy, I’ve only just started out gardening due to the financial difficulties of feeding my young family. I must say I found your post very patronizing, I was only asking a question; I was told that FloraBloom could be used in soil not just for Hydroponic systems. I do use chicken pellets. If you did not mean to try and belittle me then please accept my apologies, if you did then that may not make me a better gardener than you but it certainly makes me a better person. Thanking You Martin.
