I think I am going to turn it over, add some compost and try again. Sad thing is everything is growing so nice, if only it would bear veggies.
Maybe add a few different kinds of compost.
Well, I think it’s too early to turn it over and just give up. If you are getting lots of green growth, just not veggies, then I think you need to consider just side dressing the existing plants. You probably have enough nitrogen, or you wouldn’t be getting nice green plants.
In fact, you may simply have an overabundance of nitrogen and simply need to add some phosphorus and/or potassium. Also the ph might be a tad acidic. Walmart has little gizmo that can check your ph. Blueberries like it acidic, but most veggies are more neutral.
You could get one of those little home kits that let you check the ph and the main nutrient levels. In order to have flowers and fruit, in addition to nitrogen, you need phosporus, and of course potassium and the trace stuff.
The easiest thing is to get a package of miracle gro or some other brand of water soluable nutrients for veggies. This is a powder that comes with a scoop and you just mix it by the raito to the gallon according to the instructions, and water it in. It will have a 15 30 15 ratio or something similar. Note the phosphorus is twice the level of the other stuff.
You can also get some slow release pellets that you can side dress the plants with that will help in between the fertile watering.
When I want to use organic side dress for my plants, I use bone meal, and banana peel/eggshells(powdered in the blender after drying). If I think I need a little more nitrogen, I might use blood meal. These are for a quick fix.
Side dress with compost is for longer term. Just pick out a patch and try one of these ideas. Pick another patch and try one of the other choices to see which works best.
It might not work, but then again, it might be just what is needed. Did you plant any lettuce or greens? Those are the best plants for soil with high nitrogen content.
Forgot to add - yes you need as many different kinds of compost as you can get. That’s my problem here, cause we seldom have more than one type of compost.
Therefore, I have to use additional methods of amendments. Which plant do you think is doing the best?
