I used to sell organic transplants in 3" peat pots I used a mixture of compost
and peatmoss. I added a dry 100% organic fertilizer called Fertrell 4-2-4
which
has no odor and grew great plants. I have used fish at times and never had a
problem with odor. If your going to add liquid fish emulsion don't add any
for a
week or more before selling plants. I don't sell organic plants today because
its very hard to control plant stretching with organic fertilizers... Bob.
