[QUOTE="Brisel, post: 5929700, member: 166"] Avoid the granulated - the lower surface area vs powder means it will be very slow release and unsuitable for correcting low indices. Maintenance only. Say it's £210/t spread. £210 for 270 kg P2O5 = 77.7 p/kg. TSP is £350 for 460 kg P2O5 = 76 p/kg not including spreading but I assume you've got a suitable fertiliser spreader so the cost of application is minimal. At that money the TSP looks a better bet IMO, but it needs to suit your logistics. If you go with Scotphos, consider a bigger dose as it will mean more is available sooner if you have the cash.
