The fertilizer industry is one of the biggest rackets on this continent, but perfectly legal.

It is much easier and more profitable to sell tomatoe, rose and etc fertlizers; than to try and teach what ratio when and for what.

the best time to (trans-) plant is fall. The garden
shops know that, but their customers don’t. They are much more easily captured by displays of spring awakening then by retiring plants in fall. That is why you can’t find anything decent in your garden shops, when it is the best time to plant.
RESPONSE
I was taught this 70 years ago when my father worked at a nusery in Northen California.
When I was grown and lanscaping my own property, I could find nothing to plant in the fall except bulbs. Greenhouse started bulbs sell for a lot more in the spring. But they sell a lot of them at greater profit.
I do find tho that spring brings great ambition to get out and get my hands in the dirt.
