Hie all. i use slow release chicken manure pellets NPK = 3-2-2 on my figs. any ideas on what to feed them when they start bearing? There is organic granular sulphate of potash feed NPK = 0-0-41 and a blood and bonemeal based liquid feed N-P-K =12-2-13. Any ideas on what to use?

This year, I used composted turkey manure and Osmocote flowers and vegetables. I used about a cup of Osmocote at the beginning of season when I see green shoots and added the organic manure when root pruning.
