I'm looking for other organic pellet fertilizers like BioGold. Something that is low in nitrogen value and doesn't fall apart when you water.

I've been trying a few organic pellet fertilizers made for the general plant industry but they all turn to mush after a few waterings and clog the soil. Anybody had luck with anything else out there?

I'd like to avoid having to use tea bags to put the fertilizer in to avoid clogging the soil.

Thanks.
 
There are none, except the liquid ones.
The whole thing with solids is that they become mush eventually, that's what organic material does. There is no way around that unfortunately.

Recently saw a video where they suggest using a seed cake basket and at the bottom put something like coco coir or sphagnum and then add the pellets on top. It's supposed to help process but keep the mush from going into the pot. Still need to try it myself
 
Tamahi tends to turn not to mush for me but more hard and black after a while, and then the remainder can be removed when served its purpose. Maybe a bit of mush escapes but not too bad :) depending on the formula some are higher or lower in N, here in Europe there is Ibuki Autumn or Summer blend, and can go in baskets or teabags if you prefer.
 
I dissolve my pellets in water at super strength proportions and then dilute it heavily during watering with added bio stimulants

Seeing great results this year and solids are sieved out!
