I have herd that chemical fertilizer damages myco. Is this true. I have been trying to figure out what to replace my normal fertilizer routine with if it does.

Organic fertilizers like fish emulsion or kelp are suitable replacements I think.

I believe heavy amounts will, but normal fert amounts are ok. I do both, organic & add chemical to supliment as needed. Too many critters around my house to use fish. They would all be in my garden if I did ! LOL

I trying some more organic ferts this year. I have already put out cotton seed meal, and ordered some neptunes harvest. Will still use the manure tea, but good to know I don't have to throw away the chemicals. I'm useing myco for the first time, and have a better plan for watering and spraying so maybe good lord willing I add some more pounds over last year.
