Nitrosol (liquid) for pines and other low P plants like azalea, oak, hornbeam etc (in early spring and to boost solid fertilizer), and some natives like banksia.
Power feed is extremely alkaline. I don't like it but some do. But I do have some.
Solid...Blood and bone + soy bean meal made into cakes, dried then used or powdered for pines and other low P plants. (and everything else)
Seasol occasionally (also very alkaline)
Manutec liquid with higher P (not too high) or similar for boosting non P sensitive flowering plants especially in early spring when it's s till to cold for solids.
Solid... Nutricote or osmocote for all non P sensitive plants in plastic growing pots. Osmocote native for all P sensitive plants in plastic growing pots.

What Fertiliser we use must obviously be governed by what is commercially available and reliable; just like we choose components for our potting mix.
I always use Osmocote mix in at potting time and Powerfeed liquid. I have been doing this for a long time without any negative results. Only positives.

Why are we answering exactly the same question asked by the same person in March?
