G'day Stephen...

You tell us "...don't fertilize a newly root pruned and potted tree for at least 4 weeks..". Then, less than 3 lines later, you tell us "...I give my newly potted trees a weak solution of Seasol (liquid seaweed extract) straight after transplanting...loaded with trace elements...".

Don't? Or is it DO?

Is Seasol fertilizer? Or not?

Trace elements...?

I find that I have 12 or 16 trace elements in the fertilizer that I have been using for more than ten years.

I'm confused.

Pat
