I came across this which I found studying up on organics OrganicAnother question you may have is about organic fertilizer, specifically, is it an option for chile growing? The answer is yes, absolutely! As we get increasingly environmentally aware we may decide that we don't want to use manufactured chemicals to give our chile plants a boost. Organic fertilizers work in exactly the same way by giving the plant the nutrients it needs for strong and healthy growth. Organic nutrients typically tend to have lower NPK values than chemical nutrients. Coffee grounds for example would be approximately 2-0.3-0.6 Even with lower NPK values, organic fertilizers can easily contain enough to overfertilize so they should still be used with care!

The most common commercial organic fertilizers include blood, fish and bone meal which is a good balanced fertilizer. Fish meal is high in nitrogen and phosphorus. Seaweed is good for potassium and other trace elements. It is also worth noting that most organic fertilizers are expected to be "composted" (and ntherefore mostly decomposed) before being added to the soil. There is also a limit to the amount of "green manure" you can safely add to your soil, although nitrogen is not released until decomposition has taken place in any case. So, fancy making your own blend of organic fertilizer?

what you really need is a list of these amounts and selected into the proper catagories of browns and greens so you could literally take this type of list and literally build a perfect type of brown and green equal compost and then boost for your canna or whatever,chile n so forth,thatd be killer.good find btw.and the ones that need to achieve that number need to be properly composted cuz much of the items would not be able to be utilized effectively or usefull enough to the plants if not composted.example, shrimp heads,grasses,fruits and skins.:Sharing One:awesome!
