A Question of Fertilizer
Hey all!
Setting up a vivarium soon and am trying to plan as best I can for all factors going into successfully establishing & maintaining the plant life within! As I am trying to make sure that all elements going into this project are non-toxic to my future reptilian inhabitants, I'm curious as to whether there are any non-toxic plant foods/fertilizers that I could use in order to keep my plants healthy! I imagine that I'll be planting a number of bromeliads (which I figure may not need it bc they're epiphytic) as well as some other tropicals (areca palm, vines, ferns, mosses, baby's tears etc). I've talked to a few people at a hydroponics place, who seemed to think that some kind of organic fertilizer would probably work best, but they didn't really seem to know if it was non-toxic or not. I didn't want to take them on their word that 'organic' equates to zero toxicity so I thought I'd ask the forum! Any ideas?
