Thrive, Seasol or Other Fertiliser?

Which one is better all round? I use thrive which is alright but am wondering if Seasol or something else is better?

I use it for indoor plants, outdoor potplants and a succulent garden which I cannot use granular fertiliser on.

Prefer liquid fertilisers with low/no odour.

    Seasol would smell bad indoors.

    For indoors use slow release pellets.

    • Surprisingly, Seasol is not that bad when it's diluted.
      It smells for maybe a second but once it's in the soil it goes away.

    Seasol would be good for indoor plants because of the Nitrogen & Phosphorus in it. I would also use a balanced slow release fertiliser for indoors.

    Outdoor pots will depend on the type of plant. Rose, fruit, veggies? All will need a different type of slow release fertiliser. Just get an all purpose if you're unsure. Most fertilisers have blood & bone. If you have pets, they might dig it up.

    Seasol can be used for your succulents. Dilute it less than required so it doesn't burn. It is also good for your turf.

    Don't just rely on seasol for your plants. It's not a complete fertiliser.

    • Outdoor pots are palms and cordys, a couple ginger too.

    Seasol isn't a fertilizer. I use thrive indoors.

    • Beat me to it

    • Powerfeed is Seasol’s fertiliser, we found it not great for indoor plants, fine for any nitrogen hungry outdoor plants. The lady at the indoor plant shop recommended Growth Technology Foliage Focus, not entirely sure if it’s fertiliser, but it is a liquid. Also replacing potting mix within your pots can be good also, a quarter or less at a time if you can manage to not damage the roots.

    Seasol is a soil conditioner not a fertiliser.

  • Get onto something like Plant Doctor stuff.
