Power Organics Fish Fertilizer. This new fertilizer may be the world's most ideal plant food - an excellent combination of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in convenient form. The uniform size granules release nutrients gradually, which means plants receive a steady daily feeding over several weeks time. This is far better than ammonium-urea or manure fertilizers that evaporate or wash away from the root zone. 4, record 3, English, - urea%2Dammonium%20nitrate%20fertilizer
