That will work fine. It's a mixture of feather meal, bone meal, alfalfa meal, manure, greensand and potash. It also has 3 different species of Bacillus which is a beneficial bacteria for the soil, which is nice.
You could add some bone meal to help bump up the middle number (phosphorus) of the 5-2-6. Since you're using mushroom compost your soil Ph is probably below 7. But it wouldn't hurt to get a cheap Ph meter or test kit. Bone meal won't do any good for soils above a 7 Ph.

All of those ingredients on their own are recommended to apply 10-20lbs per 1000sq feet. Let me know your length and width of your beds and I can breakdown that formula for your size.

Half a bag per bed. You could apply that every 3-4 weeks. Also if you were to add some liquid molasses it would stimulate the soil microbes and they would breakdown all they stuff faster making it available to your plants quicker. Use Blackstrap Molasses 2 tablespoons per gallon of water. You can get it at any grocery store it's typically next to the pancake batter.

Well it's been a while since we had a couple of hard freezes and I really thought it was going to wipe out most of the peach crop, but it looks like I will have about a 70% yield. I lost both of my bee hives to moths, I really was not expecting but maybe a 10% yield, so I'm kind of pumped. PM me if you want some they are organic, no pesticides have ever touched them. The first batch will be ready come early June.

I only planted one row this year. Zucchini and yellow squash on the end away from my location last year. Zucchini is starting to set. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/04/full-16668-185420-image.jpg) One of my bigger tomatoes. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/04/full-16668-185421-image.jpg) This is a clump of 8 tomatoes. A limb got in my way. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/04/full-16668-185422-image.jpg) Jalape๑o ready to pick when I need it. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/04/full-16668-185423-image.jpg) Cucumbers are blooming. I'll put a teepee over the tomato cage later. .

Harvested most of my onions yesterday Those were the ones that made it to the drying table. I have about 1/3 that many that didnt make the cut and are being eaten green, and another 40-500 still in the ground that havent fallen over or bolted yet.

We will all be throwing them over the fence next month. Neighbors will be locking their vehicles to keep us from putting squash in there.
