Which Osmocote to use?

[jcolon]

I've been researching using Osmocote in place of root tabs and I've narrowed it
Down to the indoor / outdoor or the garden / veggies formulas. I've read on various forums about both and would like opinions from members.

I'd go with the osmocote plus. I've used the outdoor/indoor but the plus is a better idea since it also includes micros.

I'd go with the osmocote plus. I've used the 14-14-14 but the plus is a better idea since it also includes micros.

I looked for it, but I can't seem to find the plus formula ... yet ... Since you recommend it, I'll look around more.

I edited my post because I checked my bottle and its not the 14 14 14 its the indoor/outdoor. I don't think it makes a huge difference, though. It's not a big deal if you don't find the Plus, but you'll want to dose something like flourish comprehensive in addition to the osmocote.

Ah good, I planned on dosing Comprehensive anyway for my Anubias and Java ferns.

Well, my efforts to find osmocote plus did not pan out ... So... I went with the indoor outdoor formula. It's only been a few days, but I'm confident my swords will appreciate them. I bought another large bottle of comprehensive to supplelement and added some water sprite. Crossing my fingers.
